I suppose it depends how you define war and whether or not this whole concept of war is solely in the minds of the gaming public.
For me the best console for games was the PS3. Clearly, in terms of sales the Wii sold more hardware.
Profitability is a little trickier. On the face of it, the Wii seems to be a runaway leader here, followed by 360 and then PS3. However, Sony was playing a bigger game when the PS3 launched. It lost focus on gamers in the first couple of years (and recovered that focus in time to effect a massive turnaround in the console's fortunes) but, in those early days, it also used the PS3 as a highly effective weapon in winning the HDD/BluRay battle. That victory is a gift that keep on giving.
