How's the Atari 2600 doing these days? That was my last gaming system. It fucking ruled.

Don't worry. All the top selling games for the Wii are made by Nintendo. So, unless Nintendo becomes the only game maker in the world the XBOX 360 and others will thrive. Third party game makers will not abandon platforms like the XBOX where they actually sells games and earn money. Not for a platform that sells much fewer (especially third party) games per console.
