Given this post in the thread by the thread author http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=7336987 its quite clear that the discussion is around home consoles.

So can we please drop the arguments around what this topic is about and get it back on track.

probably more than 3ds considering alot of people have custom PCs. We'll never get an accurate number of people who use PCs to game, it would be silly to try but even 25% of PC users WW would be far more than any console. So the whole thing is silly

Still proves my point further that Sony is not winning the console war.


that wasnt your point because you brought 3ds into to make your company of choice look better, now you are moving more goalposts when that argument was put down. 

Sony is winning the home console race, which is what was being discussed from page one. But you knew that already



Because it's universal marketing.

People fail to point out, this is the first time PS & XB went head to head AT THE SAME LAUNCH TIME.

When ps2 and 360 launched first, it had obvious advantage. power was swept under the rug or excused bc of launch. but now that there was a REAL showdown, Sony won bc it gave ppl what they wanted.... how can a financial heavyweight like MS get knocked out by a middleweight?

it is beyond shameful that MS didnt match or exceed w/e sony was doing, MS could have made sure with AMD. The voices were loud that ps4 was a superior tech machine for the money spent. oh 3rd party games look bettr on ps4? sold.

I personally think it was nintengo and MS  errors that have Sony winning, the PS4 is not extraordinary, is just does not suck.

Because they got the most things right and pissed off the least people.

Not if we count gaming computers though. Which also by definition are consoles (and I didn't even bring that up, but it is true).

ah hah! Finally, you admit it. 

The console war discussion is about the console market only unless specified.  You know that and you like to throw handhelds into it anyway. I'll leave this as is. I'm satsified with how this went. haha.

3DS is a console. They appeal to different markets.

What exactly is the point of this argument. No matter which way you put it, it's two different markets. If you combine handhelds and home consoles why stop there. Mobiles and PC also play games and that are another 2 different markets, wanna chuck those in.

Why is it important that you group handhelds and home consoles together?


Mobile and pc do not fit the conditions of a game console being that they are not primarily used for gaming.

You just failed to see my point. Not going to argue with anymore with your loose reasoning. Not even sure if your are for real or trolling.
