But this is their longest drought without a major first-party title in two years. So it's not unexpected.



Overall if handhelds are included the Wii numbers let alone PS3 and 360 look pathetic so meh, this is just fighting over scraps.



 

Holy shit, the Wii only has a 65% marked share now!? I smell big trouble!



This is really sad. Basically PS3 doesn't win and someone else publishes proof that the PS3 is still "gaining". Its sad for them.

Well atleast those PS blogs who called for the death of Wii in the last few weeks have one more straw to clutch at.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
