No, no, no, then you're assuming a large portion of gamers actually own more than one console. I find that very hard to believe.

Yes, but that is data from 2009 and even worse, it's USA only. USA is the country that spends by far the most on consoles and console software. The ratio will be far lower in the rest of the world.

Maybe, but every time I've seen similar studies (which is not that common) it has come up with similar results; that between 1/3 and 2/3 of console owners owned multiple systems, and the most common pairings were the XBox 360 and Wii, and PS3 and Wii.

A videogame console really isn't expensive for adult gamers, especially late in a generation where the base systems sell for $100 to $150 (often bundled with games), so I don't think you would necessarily see a drop in multi-console ownership late in a generation.
