Being a shareholder really has no bearing on what console an individual buys or prefers. Not if you're an investor (using your head), rather than a fan of a company and its products (going off emotion), which is one the worst reasons to invest in a company rather than taking close examination of the company's underlying financials.

The only video game related stock I currently have in my portfolio is NTDOY, but by no means is the Wii my favorite console. But the facts are, Nintendo is performing better than any other game related company currently, making it an easy choice to invest in.

But I have to agree; buying a console because you heard or you think it's selling better than the competition has got to be one of the dumbest reasons I've heard for picking a platform.

Unless you like the game line up and platform features more than the competition, you're really setting yourself up for potential disappointment.

Well yeah. He has a wii and said that he is going to buy a PS3 simply because it is selling more than the 360? I was like WTF? He even acknoledged the fact that the 360 has the better hardcore games but because the PS3 is outselling the 360 he is gonna get the PS3. I think the July NDP just cemented his choice. Weird isnt it?

Buying a console because its selling better is pretty much the dumbest thing I have heard, you buy it because it has the games you like or because it fits your gamer profile, a lot of hardore gamers prefer the 360.

Now I like the PS3 and even the WII but following his logic the WII is cleaning both MS and Sony so shouldn't he but the WII its by FAR the best selling console?

PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Not to be a fanboy but dosent the front page of VG chartz say

360 20.3 milllion

ps3 14.73 milion

and WII outsells both EVERY Month so I hope he likes the WII

There are plenty of legit reasons to buy a PS3, but your friend is an idiot.

Sounds like he has a phobia of being different, give him a good hard slap to wake him up.

That's retarded. Shouldn't games make you by a system. Rather than sales? Weird...tell him he needs to rethink is situation....Cause last time on Dragon Ball Z...Goku said the Xbox 360 was leading and the PS3 was losing a couple of millions....
