How so?

PS2 (23m) + GC (4m) + XB (0.5m) = 27.5m
PS3 (10.5m) + Wii (12.8m) + 360 (1.7m) = 25m

Are we going to ignore that Wii didn't directly compete with PS3 and X360 just to validate your point?

It is know in VGC that console gaming have been dwindling in Japan since 7th gen.

So you concede that they indirectly competed.

If Wii and PS3 didn't compete directly, does that mean DS didn't compete directly with PSP either?
