Very strange poll in terms of what the end results of this will actually tell you.

I mean you've set up the same poll on the Wii-U at least as well here on the Nintendo section, but say someone who owns a Wii-U bought 2 games last year, both first party their result would be 100% first party games, due to a general lack of 3rd party options on the system, then on the PS4 someone here got 69 games 20 of which were 1st party giving a 28% figure. The only result these 2 poles will show would suggest from these 2 gamers that you have 10 times more 1st party sales on the WiiU where in fact you have 2 Wii-U games sold to the 20 on PS4 as well as a large number of 3rd party games.

It'll be interesting in ways to read the posts in the various threads, but I do firmly believe there would be nothing of value that you could take from the poll results of what is being asked here.

Like I said before, it seemed there was a confusion that this ratio was only meant for 2015 purchases, it has always been and it is meant to be your overall console collection.

But you make some good points, from the post votes available maybe I can perform a weighted average to take into account the size of the collections. I'll think about it, thanks!

Np really, it's cool to see the whole batch of threads, I think most people imagined that the Wii-U thread was going to be all 100% Nintendo software on their consoles.

A couple of people have mentioned it in their posts as well, but I wonder have some people included software gifted to them from psn+ which are normally smaller 3rd party indie studios, would heavily push the margain away from 1st party if someone was to include those titles.

Good luck squeezing out the info from the polls and the posts in each of the threads tho Mr Tomato!
