Wonder what markets are still left for nintendo to top. Even in the decline stages, they are total marketshare holders in many key areas. What is left?

Well they could try to attack 10% or 20% market share barrier they have in Poland ;)

 

That's really low

I did go on a school trip to Poland (Krakow to be precise) back in June 2007.  We went into several gaming/entertainment stores (I can remember Empik was one of them) and back then the Wii's marketshare didn't seem too bad compared to PS3/360; PC gaming had a massive section and probably took up a good 40% of the gaming area.

Off topic, but I actually got Final Fantasy VI Advance in Poland for the contemparary Zloty equilivant of £32, which is a bargain considering how much the game goes for online.  The strange thing is that the game had the green triangle on it, indicating it was originally meant for the U.K/Irish markets.  So myself, a U.K school tourist went to Poland and bought an imported U.K/Irish game in the local store.

Well there's no real data for Poland but the only published market share data I have seen came from Media Markt chain of stores (big supermarkets with tvs, consoles, fridges, kitchens etc) had Nintendo as a whole (DS Wii) at <10 %.
