Winning is nothing. Profits are the most imortant.

Market share is important. If you dominate the market you can impose your conditions and get an edge over the competition (GTA San Andreas early launch on PS2 its a good example). You get profit and your competitors don't. If you have just a little portion of the market, you will end suffering with that.
Let's imagine that Wii U will dominate the market and the other two will end with a much lower base. Ninty could negotiate exclusivity with COD or at least some months of it. Year after year it would be devastating over the competitors.

Don't get me wrong, Marketshare is important as well but it still all comes down to profits for a business. We as fans just looks at numbers to boast about something. This isn't like when PS2 dominated it's competition, everybody is relatively close in how much they have sold. It was easy to tell that PS2 made the most money lol

I agree, marketshare only helps if its almost a monopoly (NES, PS2, etc). In the current situation, with similar shares, it doesn't matter.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say :)
