Default Insightful look at game ownership numbers

found this to be a rather interesting breakdown.

Crispy Gamer | The Great American Gaming Landscape

can't wait to hear how the data is fake, us sales don't matter, rrod, wii is for kids, and all the other everyday ps3 fanboy excuses.

Interesting. Those PS3 numbers looking pretty small there. It is obvious that a lot own a wii and 360 for console combos vs any other combo.

Wii owners are much less likely than other system owners to own a second console -- nearly two-thirds (66.56 percent) of households with a Wii don't have another console. In contrast, households with a PS3 are more likely than not to also have another system -- roughly three in five PS3 owners (59.4 percent) also own an Xbox 360, a Wii or both.

why do so many ps3 owners need a second console?

Umm, because they want to experience other games? There are a lot of people who aren't like you and are stuck to 1 system..


Also.. In general I would say PS3 owners have more money and can afford it.

and so it begins.

1. i own about 10 gaming consoles(if you count the ones i just have in storage). let's say i have 5 current gaming platforms. bad assumption.

2. i've personally purchased 4 ps2's. so that disproves anything about me having anything against sony.

3. if you spend $500 or $600 on something, that leaves you with LESS money than someone who spends $250-$350 on something. that's the easiest of math.

the simple fact of the matter is that a higher % of people are satisfied with ONLY a Wii or 360 vs a PS3. in other words, users of those 2 consoles have more choice in what to play. In other, other words, PS3 has no games.

more people own both a 360 and a Wii vs. a PS3+ anything else. Most Xbox360 users have a library over 20+ games at $65 a pop.

I wouldnt say money is exactly a factor in choice.

Yet.. people bitch about how much a ps3 cost?


Smoger.. Congratulations.. You have a bunch of old consoles..?


I have all 3... because I want to play exclusives from all 3... then I sit back and laugh at the ps3/360/wii bitch fest that go on... Because I'm good no matter what.

I've played Wii plenty of times, just can't see spending the money on it right now... Especially since I don't have it .. But there is supposed to be a Wii price drop this weekend. I believe they are dumping em down to $200...
