11-18 year olds prefer the PS3? Well yeah, that's the age when violence is at it's coolest, stuff perceived as "kiddy" is at it's worst, and brand loyalty matters the most.

How old was the average gamer again these days, closer to thirty or something?

Thats funny since the 360 would appeal to the the kiddies not the PS3 with games like GEOW and other shooters in the mix. The average adult gamer is a core consumer and would buy a PS3 or 360 before a Wii,the rest of the adults are buying them for their young children or to play with their young children.

The first problem with this statement is that for the most part the 360 library IS the PS3 library. Both systems have a few exclusives that the other doesn't, but they're extremely similar. Lists of recently announced titles seem to indicate that this trend is only going to get stronger.  

As for adult core gamers buying a PS3 or 360 over a Wii, what makes you think so? The adult core gamers on this site sure seem to prefer the Wii, and the millions of people who had to queue for hours to get a Wii during the first few months after the system launched sure as heck weren't soccer moms and school kids.   

Gamers have chosen the Wii as well. Deal with it.
