ps2 had LARGE numbers obv...but a lot of that was either multiple consoles (after first 1-4 broke) and they got the CASUAL gamers last gen

this gen, the casual gamers are going to the wii, so sony loses that branding with those gamers, as they see crying babies on sony commercials and families having fun on wii commercials

sony made a machine for, and is marketing to, hardcore gamers

the # of hardcore gamers just isn't as big as many of u would like to think



Bets:Missed by 420k I bet leo-j vg$500 that wii will sell 31 million by 7/31/08.  Sorry, I don't think he has enough vg$ to make it with all of u that wish you could. Hit, with room to spare I bet kingofwale a 1-week ban that wii Americas ltd sales>360 Americas ltd sales as of the numbers for week ending 7/05/08 (using vgchartz homepage #s)
