I've notist that the sucsses rate of the consoles seems to be in tied w/ wat race the console maker is, now when I mean race I mean the primary race that owns the company. ok so microsoft is an all american company and the Xbox360 is doing awsome, nintendo is primaraly...well mostly,a japanese company and they'er pretty much owning everybody, then comes sony which is both american and japanese (correct me if im wrong about sony's "race") and they'er losing the console wars! haha. matbe the japanese and the americans are not getting along well in the sony company. Who knos but, It's just a guess about the ate w/ the race of the consoles maker, has anyone thought of this as well?
