In the console industry, that's how it works as well. The difference is, the other two (PS3 and Xbox 360) kept running for another 20M. That doesn't mean the Wii didn't win. It just means the other two kept running after the race was over. |
So why is it a 100M race? Why not 110M? Why not 120M? Why not the 157M of the previous race? Who sets that limit? And what if you have three people racing each other in a 157M race and none of them reaches that finish line?
It's not a race with an arbitrary distance, it's a competition for the longest distance. World record, guinness book,...

No. Which sales numbers are usually referenced when looking back to PS2, Xbox and GameCube? Their total sales (157M, 25M, 22M) or only their sales up to the launch of the xbox360 (100M, 24M, 20M)?
