>The only current gen consoles that should be same gen are Wii and PS3 (1 week apart)

Well, giving PS3 and WIi are almost completely focusing on different demographic of audience and their vastly different price-range.

It's really no different when it comes to comparing a Toyota and a BMW. Saying how Toyota is PWNING BMW would only get people saying.. "hmmm, so what?"

both same product, but focusing on very different people.

 when a company releases a product and people have a choice (360, ps3, wii) then they are fighting for your dollar. Every wii sold is a ps3 that could of been sold or a 360. that means they are all in the same gen no matter what time frame they came out. every dev that makes 5 games on wii and 1 for ps3 is a loss for sony. if u want to agree or not the wii is the reason why sonys sales and microsofts sales are so soft.

If someone is looking for a car and they want a BMW then they get it over Toyota. its a car both are trying to sale. one is better, or better looking (as with ps3 and wii) but they are both cars that drive. a sale for BMW is a loss for Toyota no matter how u put it. and thats the same for wii and ps3 and xbox no matter when they came out.

 

Every Wii sold is NOT a lost sale for PS3/Xbox.  Lots of people will be buying both.   The Wii doesnt meet all the needs of the hardcore gamer, not to mention they are missing out on HD gaming.  A Xbox sale is a missed sale for the PS3 but the Wii is a different market.  Its like saying that someone buying an electric scooter is a lost sale for Harley Davidson.
