:lol i love this part:
BIZ: Nintendo had a very successful holiday with a great start for the Wii, and that had to have taken away some sales from the 360. Are you worried about all the positive buzz for Nintendo possibly stealing market share or even just mind share from MS?
SK: I'm not worried about it. I think you have to acknowledge that they've done a great job and anybody who's been around for a long time is always going to have a soft spot in their heart for Nintendo. I mean, most gamers grew up with Nintendo so I think a lot of people are pulling for Nintendo to be successful in their own right. And certainly they've done a really great job with the DS business and Wii has resonated with a segment of the audience we're interested in, we care a lot about, because in order to reach our aspirations we've got to win with that audience as well. So, I'm not worried about it; I'm also not surprised by it and I think we have to do a better job appealing to that same customer segment. We should all recognize that there's just some competitive advantages that Nintendo has that with that audience. I know Wii is a next-gen console for Nintendo, but whether or not it's a true next-gen competitor in the console space is a different question. And again, I think we can really craft a great value offering to customers that today are gravitating towards either Wii or, frankly, even PS2 today. If I were Sony, I'd be a little bit more worried that PS2 continues to sell so well while you can find the PS3s in stores.
BIZ: It's funny because you mention PS2 selling well and that they should be worried doing so well while the PS3 is off to, some would say, a slow start. But on the other hand they say that you guys should be worried because the PS2 has been outselling the 360. How do you respond to that?
SK: I think frankly that's a ridiculous comparison. I've seen that many times from Sony execs and I think that's ridiculous. I mean, it's $129! I mean, if that's how you want to compete, fine. [snickers] What matters is that we outsold Wii and PS3 combined in December. That's what matters. We dramatically outsold PS3 head-to-head and when you compare our first party portfolios and what our prospects are going forward, I mean Xbox Live over PlayStation Network etc, etc... that's the more important comparison. I mean, yeah, if we sold Xbox 360 for $129 and they outsold us with PS2s, then I'd be a little bit more worried
