Hmm, this can only be good news for Microsoft.

I wonder what the numbers imply for the Wii? More casual userbase = less average playtime per console inspite of the greater % of people using it?

Yeah!

 

The Wii is full of Grandparents. The PS3 is curing cancer.

 

This seems to directly contradict the statement that the Wii gets a greater usuage from many different family members. If the Wii had a usage model which follows this pattern then shouldn't the Wii's usage be relatively much higher?

Furthermore usage statistics like these would imply that the Wiis attach rate per console will drop substantially compared to both the PS3 and Xbox 360 because if you take 1.) Games which can be replayed more often and 2.) reduced playtime relative to the competition; then software sales will not keep up as a relative % of userbase as the % increase of total consoles stabalise.

 

Shameless bump of post.
