CAL4M1TY, you have a point, it is my first ever thread so i might have a little :p, but i disagree with u a lil bit, PlayStation's brand is stronger than Nintendo's but I value everyone's opinion. And to answer ur question on why its 3rd place by 8 million, is because of the price. Sony has done great despite the price, but hurt too among casuals so i expect a huge comeback at 299, but they wont catch up to the Wii. Wii is building its own strong brand too, so u have a point also.
