So they are 3rd then....

we wont go into balance sheets, cashflow and profit margins... it will just get ugly.

and so what if I am comparing microsoft and sony the company with ninty the company... thats business, the divisions are part of a bigger corporation... anything else is a fanboy war.  MS and Sony will move cash, product lines and assets to suit their ongoing  business and their bottom line.

As much as I agree with you, the graph still has a meaning with those specific numbers.

Bottom line, if the gaming division for Nintendo falters, they will need to persist in gaming so as to make sure things turn around. If they don't, Nintendo is in trouble.

For Apple & MicroSony,  if things go bad in the gaming division, they need to look at other business ventures since they are already conglomerate. So even if you're looking at the worth of their whole company, in the context of video games and the likelihood of remaining in the market, the first graph is more representative imho.
