According to the NPD's latest Games Segmentation report, PlayStation 3 owners are more likely to own other current-generation consoles when compared to Wii and Xbox 360 owners.

The results, compiled from 20,000 online survey respondents, counter the belief that there are more Wii and Xbox 360 combo owners (appropriately dubbed "Wii60" fans) than PlayStation 3 multi-system homes. No reasons were given as to why.

Interestingly, only 10 percent of PlayStation 2 owners also own a PlayStation 3, the study found.

In terms of portables, 45 percent of PSP owners also own a Nintendo DS, while only 21 percent of Nintendo DS owners also own a PlayStation Portable.

I used to be a Wii60 owner, then I got a PS3, so this study isn't that accurate.

I would have thought that Wii owners would be most likely to own another console... but then again there are a LOT of casual gamers that own a Wii. For serious gamers (hate the term hardcore)... Wii owners are probably most likely to get another console. Too many great games that Wii is missing.

WiiS360 Guy right here. =D So not all Sony Fanboys are former PS2 Owners? No wonder they dont know jack-shit about games outside of Resistence 2, KZ2 and Home, A.K.A Games that started on PS3. Besides KZ2.
