Why sales arguements mean nothing especially when Cows use them:

Sales are the weakest argument. But they matter for cows. You know why it's bogus?

The funny thing is that PS2's top title sold about three times as much as GC's chart topper. And still they are in debt. A million times a hundred (approximate amount of titles on the list) is a hundred million times fifty (average price per game) is 1,000,000x50=50,000,000. So Sony has made at a very crude estimate $50,000,000 and it doesn't help a bit because 61 billion divided by 50 million is 1,220. Sony would need to sell 1,220 more of 2004 to break even. That's how much it would take Sony to break even-- 1220 more years exactly like 2004. By the year 3225 Sony would begin to profit.

Sony has sold more of each. But they are making no profit. Why do you sell things? To make a profit. MS has been selling for 3 years and is just now profiting. Nintendo, while it has sold the least consoles, has made the most profit. So Nintendo has had the most effective generation.
