Nintendo sold more software than anyone else in the U.S. the last few years. This includes Sony and Sega. Not to mention that they also have the Game Boy Advance, which despite being a portable is still a console, and the original game boy has sold over 10 million units, and an untold number of games. Sony/Microsoft also loses more money per unit than Nintendo does on their systems, and since many buy the ps2/xbox for their dvd capabilities and only play a game every once in a while, it appears that Nintendo has a advantage...If this is flopping, then they're flopping all the way to the bank.
