It would have been nice if you used a fixed time frame for each console so we could compare them with each other but you didn't so everything is pretty useless except for the last section of data you posted comparing the different publishers. But it's pretty well known Ea is the biggest console publisher followed by Activision and Ubisoft is rather far behind.

Actually, it's far from useless information. It's very useful information if you want to know which company has succeeded most on what platform. Ubisoft has done well on the Wii, comparatively, and EA has done VERY well on the xbox. Different strategies work well on each platform, I guess.

The fact that the Xbox has been out a year longer than the other two makes almost no difference for software sales at this point, especially not the relative distribution of software sales for the three big third party publishers.

ahh yes it does make a difference. A fucking year of software sales, + a year of existing userbase during launch.

It makes a gigantic difference.
