Nintendo's business model is flawed

I would disagree, my most played game of all time is the original Mario. I still have my original cartridge, and in fact, I played today. I don't have it yet, but I imagine that the same is true for NSMBW.

I have over 1500 in the Disgaea series, 40 on Demon's Souls (haven't really started playing it yet), 200 on White Knight Chronicles, . You can't say there's not plenty of time sinks exclusive to the PS3. It's also easy to argue Little Big Planet has a much longer lifespan than any Mario game. 

Besides it's purely subjective. If you enjoy a game enough you can play it over and over, yet that game probably doesn't have a long 'lifespan' in the traditional sense. Most Mario games do not have long lifespans in the traditional sense. 

I can't speak for the 360 though, on my box the longest time I played an exclusive was for about 30hours. I did spend 42 days on Call of Duty 4 but I'm not sure if this counts. 

Disgaea = 3rd party

Demon's Souls = 3rd party

White Knight Chronicles = 2nd party
