According to Wikepedia, these are the leaders for most consoles sold all-time. I didn’t include hand held systems because they’re such a different item in my opinion. The ones in bold are the 3 present systems in the “console war”. As you can see, the Wii is wrecking shop. However, the Wii just doesn’t cut it for me, I like to have better graphics and complex game play. If I want to hit a tennis ball, then I’ll hit a tennis ball, not simulate it by using a controller. As mentioned in my previous post, Sony has sold me on the PS3.
