Sure, if I can find it. Like I said it was a long time ago so it will take some search engine wizardry.

I've seen nothing else report wise on this stuff though. So if you have a counter link i'd be interested to read it. (Unless you were talking about the bogus online poll that was like the gamefaqs polls.)

There was a lot of talk about conspicious consumption... which is why it actually makes sense if you've taken any classes in consumer purchasing behavior.

The PC being more popular than a console says something very different than people probably think ... The PC probably has one of the most diverse userbases because (pretty much) everyone owns a PC and most people play games on the PC of some sort; this ranges from Bejewled to World of Warcraft, and The Sims to Crysis.

Ah it was the Nielson Group

I'll see if i can find the longer article too.

But yeah.  Wii usually fell into the more afluent group then... and i've yet to see anything to contradict it.

what a lot of crap. i can just make up numbers out me head as well

So thats means that the PS3 share time with more consoles, we can say its because they have more money, or because the console doesn´t offer enough to keep the costumers happy... I´m going for both...

 This is USA only not the whole America.

i have a ps3 and i have a ps2 and pc and a gameboy. don't most people have multiple platforms to play on because i havent played a game on my pc for over a month now.

Perhaps, except that could also imply that the PS3 and 360 are bought more by single person households (such as college students) whereas many Wii owners are teenagers or children, hence why the household income is 100k or more (mother and father both working should easily pull in over 100k a year). Of course, the divorce rate is so high in this country, that that could also be another variable. I imagine couples would also buy a Wii to play together.

Also, if your console has a huge sales disparity with the others, it's likely to be the console that shares the living room space. I'm sure there were a good bit more people who exclusively owned a PS2 than exclusively owned a Gamecube. It's simple. When the other consoles have 7-8 million lead, there's bound to be some overlap.

They mean next gen multiplatform.

But it's obvious they are talking about percentages... which means absolutely nothing without knowing the percentages since the PS3 has less then half the sold consoles of Wii and 360.

So even if PS3's percentage is double.  Like say... 10% of PS3 owners own multiple consoles vs 5% of Wii and 360...

The PS3 total number is still lower.
