| Sales are an important aspect from the consumer perspective. |
Demographics are just as important and the PS3 is a very common console, in just over two years after global release it already outsold all Amiga models combined plus the life time sales of CDTV, Sega Dreamcast, Panasonic/Goldstar/Sanyo 3DO, Atari Lynx, Philips CDi and SNK NeoGeo!

Not by a long shot. The NES outsold the Amiga 500 at least 15 fold.
The Amiga 500 was far more capable and powerful, thus a lot more exciting for developers to work with. That's an important reason why there were far more commercial Amiga 500 games released.
I would never have traded my Amiga for a NES back then and similarly I would never trade my PS3 for a Wii, but vice versa absolutely. |
