Who do you think controls the gaming market right now?

Newsflash honey, Microsoft doesn't count. An Xbox is but a mere computer with a black box, nothing more. So they're automatically ruled out as far as I'm concerned, contrary to the fact that I do have an Xbox and not a PS2 nor a GameCube. I wanted one at the time.

But that leaves Nintendo and Sony. No comparison, Sony wins hands down, simply because the definition of the word 'society' is no longer assimilar to the word 'fad'. That is all.

Nintendo.
I think their stuff looks cooler and attracts more people, even though Sony has some cool games.

Microsoft is all over the place, not because of their game engine(-s) ut because of their games. For example, who hasn't heard of NHL? Or Fifa? Microsoft has probably the biggest section of the biggest game ever.

And who hasn't seen sports games released on all three systems?
Almost every sports game any gamer even cares about is available on PS2 and GCN too.

Who controls the console market? In America Sony, then Microsoft, then Nintendo. In Japan Sony, then Nintendo, then Microsoft(The X-BOX barely sells over in Japan, that is why they are making to X-BOX 360 cheaper in Japan). Yeah Sony is the winner in consoles in both America and in Japan. But in the portable market Nintendo whips everyone else in America and Japan. Overall, I think Nintendo controls the gaming market in America and Japan, then Sony, then Microsoft.

I basically made this thread to weedle out the fanboys...controlling the market is about factual statistics...it's all about denial

If you said something other than sony...*COUGH*fanboy*COUGH*

It's Sony. Their games are for all ages while Xbox is for mostly mature gamers and Gamecube and N64 had mostly games aimed at younger players. The sales are still high, however, Nintendo most likely will take the lead later on because of the Revolution, and several new games that will be availible for it.

Nintendo makes the most money out of video games and hardware but you are right about the sales.
