That chap would be Hiroshi Yamauchi, ex-CEO of Nintendo. 3rd richest guy in Japan.

I'm certainly not saying that.

But a parent faced with 3 choices of "modern" gaming rigs is probably more likely to shoot for the kid-friendly $250 model, rather than the $400 or $600 model, no?

Personally, I believe that's the primary contributing factor.

Well I'm guess since the parent is only looking at price, it would be save to assume, they know little about what they are buying, right?

Then the parnets sees the Core Xbox 360, at 299......299 Xbox 360 vs 249 Wii...not so much of a price different.

The Wii is NOT outselling PS3 and Xbox 360 by those margins by price alone.

Course not. Else we'll be seeing a correlated graph of the last gen consoles on top, then onto GBA, DS, PSP, Wii, then 360 core, Premium, 360, PS3.
