Yeah, this is a biased sample. Two main things:

1   This site is focused on videogame sales. It seems like, since the Wii is dominating, more Nintendo fans gather here. When your console is winning, I suppose it's easier to look at the numbers...

This is a videogame website. The type of people that frequent gaming forums, are also the type that buy the niche games like JRPG's, critically acclaimed flops/unpopular games (Okami, NMH, Zack & Wiki). Look at the game collections, for example - 500 users claim to own NMH, a game that sold 390k. Mario Kart Wii is owned by 807 users here, when there are 14.5m copies sold.

In short, we don't represent the average core gamer.

So, I'd say you can't really draw those kinds of conclusions from such a poll. Not that it was useless, it is interesting...

1. There are more nintendo fans here because Nintendo is selling better  (dont really see how you can know that)

2. Only the hardcore of hard core of nintedo fans visit this site.... but every single HD console owner does? (dont really see how you can know that) ..... even if that is true those two cancle each other out :P

Edit: Sarcasm.... i just wanted to make that clear b4 people get too ubset :P

I think that this is one of the only VG sites where this poll can be done without trolls and flamers ruining it  lol
