Well by your logic since MS chooses not to introduce a handheld its their own fault. And the PS2 is just as much of a different market from the PS3 as the Wii is from the DS so that argument is bunk. Why not just do a real company wide comparison?

Nov 25th '06 through March 8th '08

Console	Wii	PS3	X360	PSP	DS	XB	GC	GBA	PS2
Total	22,390,706	10,483,915	11,896,277	15,804,020	39,575,831	40,533	493,413	4,289,957	14,207,029

Nintendo - 66,749,907 - WINNER!!!

Sony - 40,494,964

Microsoft - 11,936,810

 

That's a fine way to look at the last year and a half...  And apparently it makes you feel good... So that is good too!

I'm not sure why it is so outrageous to consider consoles and hand-helds differently... Maybe I'm missing something there...

 

On your numbers, you should note that you're comparing:

4 - Nintendo Products

3- Sony Products

2- Microsoft Products 

 

It shows that Nintendo has sold the most total products in a year and a half.. .Sony looks respectable... MS doesn't come off so well.

 

But back to my sin of focusing on console game systems...  :)
