Nearly 2 million sold. And making a profit on every one of them. Compare that with both Sony and Microsoft losing money on each console sold. Sony loses $300 per system.

So in terms of units sold AND profits... Nintendo is hardly 3rd.

You mis-spelled "ignorant" again. Try copying and pasting if it's tripping you up.

I've never understood this fanboy attitude. I own products by the big three and enjoy them all for different reasons. I will be picking up a 360 up at some point to go along with the Wii. That's the best of both worlds I think.

To say that Nintendo is #3 at this point would be completely wrong as others have pointed out. In fact, Nintendo is probably the only manufacturer actually turning a profit on their console. They're doing extremely well.
