What is the interest into the differential gap, exactly? Aside from fanboyism, that is.

Absolute install base make sense for hardware vendors and service/software providers, and install base ratios make sense for studios who have to choose the platform on which to develop.

But the differential gap? What's its significance?

 

Exactly why would we want to discuss a sales gap on a video game sales chartz forum. Oh wait...

Can't understand your logic. Since this site is about sales would you want to track, chart, and discuss the quantity:

(weekly sales of DS+ weekly sales of PS3) / (weekly sales of PSP 1 year ago + total Wii sales)

I answer no, because it has no interesting meaning.

Now read my post again, and feel free to explain me what is the real world meaning of (total 360 sales - total PS3 sales). I already made the case for the absolute total sales and the ratio (total 360 sales / total PS3 sales) as quantities that will affect the business and cascade on us gamers.
