From Nintendo Platforms?

Who cares, at first I thought they were intimating it was stuff all made by Nintendo.

There's only 3 manufacturers, and Microsoft has always been absent, and well... PS Vita is doing awful.

So really, it's a country with only 3 platforms... two of which are Nintendo based ones.

70% is just barely over the 66% you'd assume anyway, not counting the very marginal figures for other systems.

4 platforms... the PSP is still going. (DS & PS2 are too but if you are discounting the X360 for selling bad then may as well discount them... either way though Nintendo and Sony have the same number of systems even if you take out Vita)

Your argument is actually similar to what I said earlier in the thread though... 360 and DS (and PS2) are essentially dead as far as marketshare sway goes... while Wii, PS3, PSP and Vita are all selling like second place platforms. So Nintendo wins by default in a way because they have the leading handheld.
