Sony PS2 shipments just crossed 100 million.
Xbox is ~21 million.
GameCube is ~18 million.

So, roughly 70% Sony, 14-16% off the top of my head for Nintendo and Microsoft.

But you said links, so uhh... check IGN or something. *runs*

Once you throw in the handhelds it's going to complicate things though...

thanks, anyone have any legit links. it has to be reputable so that i can site it as a source in my bibliography.
