Forums - Sales - Denise Kaigler says Wii has greater than 50% market share

She means DS and WII

The question that was asked is specifically about the Wii, and the answer is strictly about the Wii. Why would you think she is talking about the DS?




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Contextually, there is no way she is refering to DS. The entire thing is about Wii, it's not like she snuck the DS in using weasel words.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

Not only that, the Wii has 99% of the Wii market!! The other 1% is made up of blind kids holding old 1990's cell phones.

There last shipped figures dont result to 50% market share, but the combination of the DS and Wii go above 50%

The DS alone is 50% (not including Wii in any figures), but again, the question wasn't about about the DS, nor did she ever mention the DS. Maybe this is based off their own internal tracking. Maybe NPD and VGChartz are way off. Maybe they are talking shipped and they shipped a few extra million for the $50 price cut. I really don't have any clue.

If you include DS and PSP, they have well over 50% market share, in which case why would she use such a low number as 50%?

If the market share is 47-48% then it's pretty much 50% as far as the PR talk is concerned.



Currently playing on PS3: God of War III

Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII

Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger

firstly 49% is close enough or either maybe npd and vgchartz are way off or something but yeah if they actually literally mean above 50% than vgchartz is off cause i think ninty would know more than npd or vgchartz probably but hey i am not any sales tracker or anything so yeah don't attack me if i said something stupid as i know nothing about sales tracking...

I would also bet she is merely rounding it off. Its just PR talk.

However, she did say "more than"...  O.o



well their SO CLOSE to it, that maybe their just saying that they have it
