I think the winner only matters if what they offer is so much better than the competition. e.g. PS1, PS2....

This generation the Wii will probably win... But who is going to care? Look at the games we get, it is almost worse than what we got for the GC :(

Does it really matter? Play the games that you like on the console that you prefer. All three consoles cater to different groups, the Wii especially, so it's practically impossible to make any kind of comparisons to them.

b.b.but, I likey the cocky.

Also, for this generation, Nintendo is no winner in my book. They have the sales numbers to beat, but MS and Sony shouldn't have to strive to top those numbers because they've got more satisfied users, who are actually playing videogames.

Also, I hate Nintendo for making me hate Nintendo. I'm starting to troll and I don't like it.

As often as people here like to bitch about how "useless" console sales are (for some reason I don't quite understand because the entire basis for market penetration is how many consoles are out there. It's not the be all end all figure but if Nintendo sold no Wii's they'd sell no games either) Nintendo has not yet cut prices and is making profit per console. Sony is losing tonnes of money per console and is 100% dependent upon software, accessories, and downloads. I think Microsoft is making money on their consoles but they've had to slash repeatedly to try and undermine the Wii price point and had the whole RROD debacle.

All that aside, all Sony or Microsoft have to do is finish in the black and possibly expand their brand recognition to succeed. Getting drubbed by Nintendo is not exactly expected but gaming is Nintendo's purpose so they're obviously in it win. Just making a profit isn't good enough for an entire company like it is for a gaming division.

It's a pretty big accomplishment for the xbox to sell more consoles than sony in only its second generation. Of course, a lot of that has to do with sony.

Of course they won't outsell them, But IMO Nintendo's games will continue to plummet in quality. I don't need two more sonic games, The original was good enough for me.

I think that MS and the big N need to team up and become the unstoppable force known as "Nintendosoft" or "Microtendo"
