I think the PS3 enables sony to compete in multiple markets , as it compliments other products it's Sony's portfolio.

Blu-Ray
HD-Content
HD TV's

But then I'd still argue that they are in competition with Microsoft's XBOX 360 but they have less to loose from selling less hardware than Microsoft because of the other benefits Sony experience from their console.

I don't really see the Wii and the PS3/360 as direct competitors , they compete to some extent but It only looks like the Wii is dominating both because the XBOX 360 is doing better this gen than it did last , I think people would be more ready to acknowlede this if the 360 flopped.

It only looks like the Wii is dominating???

Please explain how it only can look like the Wii is dominating.

 

Well like I said before I don't believe the PS3 and Wii are director competitors , if you look at the kind of people Nintendo are trying to apeal to ( With games such as Wii-Fit and Wii-Play ) and the people Sony are tying to apeal to (With games such as Uncharted and GT5:P) I find that they aren't directly competing , of course there's situations where the Wii does atempt to control the hardcore market with Zelda , SSMB and SMG but in truth the hardcore market is captured by the PS3/360.

 I think Nintendo will try to capitalise more in future on their opportunities in the hardcore market ( with alot of help from 3rd part developers )  but I think the hardware will be a big limitation , the mature/hardcore game traditionaly leans towards beautiful visuals and violent gameplay something which the PS3/360 offers more readily than the Wi.

 Yes the Wii dominates , but it doesn't dominate all. I don't think Nintendo could release a Halo killer FPS neither do I think the could release a GT5 killer racer.

Ahh, thought so you didn´t have any reasons just being stupid fanboy.

Well if they aren´´t competing then the PS 2 never won last gen since they had the weakest console and thus xbox won last gen. But i am pretty sure that you wont agree cause you are just being a fanboy.

How come when PS expanded to new gamers it was ok and they competed and won last gen but when Nintendo does the same thing but arguably better this gen it´s not competing???

You just cherry pick the battles that suits you??
