Here, phenom, just for fun :
When Nintendo wins, it's close, and its thanks to the casual audience. Most core regret their purchase and will be reluctant to make it again unless WiiU is compelling. That's a good portion of that 97M.
Pos | Platform | North America | Europe | Japan | Rest of World | Global |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | PlayStation 2 (PS2) | 53.65 | 53.28 | 23.18 | 23.57 | 153.68 |
14 | Xbox (XB) | 15.77 | 7.17 | 0.53 | 1.18 | 24.65 |
15 | GameCube (GC) | 12.55 | 4.44 | 4.04 | 0.71 | 21.74 |
When Sony wins, it's a no-contest, and its thanks to catering to all audiences and thanks to aggressive marketing. People were ready to give them money again (even at exorbitant rates), and are ready to do it again.
So, when Nintendo gets less fortunate, things will go down. For Sony, it can really only go up.
