Analyst group IDC stated in their predictions for the gaming market
froom 2006- 2011, that Nintendo will end up on top by outselling the
Xbox 360 (Microsoft) and Sony's Playstayion 3.
"With the Wii, Nintendo is abdicating the specification war, leaving
Sony and Microsoft to slug it out between themselves for the hardcore
market," says Billy Pidgeon of IDC. "We believe concerted efforts to
broaden the appeal of videogames beyond the traditional
enthusiast/hardcore base will deepen the industry's penetration. This
is good news for an industry that seemed to be receding last year due
to over-saturation of the core base."
It is predicted that this race will be closer than last gen's, but they still put Nintendo on top. The last time Nintendo was number 1 was with the Super Nintendo.
