Top 99 Games

I have been crunching some numbers in regards to IGN's recent Top 99 Games list. Here is what I have found out.

• 33% of the top 99 games are exclusively on a Nintendo console.



• 20% of the top 99 games are exclusively on a Sony console.



• 5% of the top 99 games are exclusively on a Microsoft console.

Couple things I noticed when I was tallying everything. First of all almost all of the top xbox games have been ported to PC. Since the rule was exclusively on a system I could not count these. But if when I think about this it makes sense because Microsoft is not just in the console business they also wish to encourage people to use their operating system. If I can't play my favorite games on a mac then I am more likely to stick around. In a way I want to count PC games for Microsoft.

Secondly, Nintendo is the king of the handheld market. What really helped push up Nintendo's numbers were all the Game boy Advanced games on the list.

What does all this mean? I don't know you tell me. Feel free to blast the hell out of this.
