Why are people acting like the PS3 losing even more market share is A-OK?

Mwah, until the 360 isn't somewhere around 40 million units or more (I think more or less the userbase that warrants 3rd party exclusives) I'm sure 3rd parties will mostly make games for PS360, not exclusive for any of these.

PS3 owners ironically have to be very happy with the healthy 360 sales, since it stops Wii from taking even more marketshare over the combined HD share.

 

 

Thank you BengaBenga

That is the answer I was interested in without actually thinking. The number where 3rd parties think "hang on a minute, is it really worth us doing the effort for both?"

What do you think the PS3 would have to be at if the Xbox 360 was at 40mil for it to start showing in terms of games that should be multiplat - not being so?

Just as an example

I know a few people say that due to the cost of HD development this gap would have to be much wider than in previous generations?

Does everyone agree with this? Or does the issue of cost for developing on the PS3 as has been voiced by some developers, although not directly I hasten to add, counter balance this?
