Just going to throw this out there - Gamers use Windows XP, not Vista

| Sky Render said: Framework: Economic Est. Hardware Units Sold in 2008 So Far (DS+Wii): 37,419,004 I do so love raw numbers and the percentages they generate. Anyway, before posting arguments to the contrary, please note the framework this is going by, as noted above. It won't do much good to argue against it in a different context, unless you happen to be able to give a different purely quantitative value index to work with (ie. not a tallying of opinions). |
Nintendo sells 61.40% of all hardware and only 57.28% of all software? Looks like they still can't sell games for their paper weights after all.
So much silliness... Though I do have to admit that Windows does kind of have a monopoly on bundled games compared to anything else, given that there's virtually no version of Windows lacking Solitaire and very few without Minesweeper. Wes Cherry (the guy who programmed the original Windows 3.0 version of Solitaire) must be pretty pissed right now, since he never got royalties for his work on the game.
Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.

Silliness? Don't you consider windows as a gaming platform or what exactly is so silly?
2008 definitely belongs to Ninty (and 2007, and 2006), but 2009 will be the year of the PS3! My reasoning for this is that Nintendo will rake in so much cash, that the only computer processor powerful enough to rectify Nintendo's balance sheet will be the Cell, e.g. Nintendo will have to buy a bunch of PS3's to count their money!

You should use this paragraph in a future "2009 will be the year of the PS3" thread. I'm sure one will pop up in the next 72 hours. It's being wasted in here with your choir.
I don't own a Wii to date but can't say I feel left out in any way.
Congrats to Nintendo for the on going domination though.
