@welshbloke, Maybe you should made a new article for Jan Nielsen, stating "Wii is the most used current-gen console". And later on an article for Feb Nielsen, stating that "Wii is the only current gen console that drop in usage from January to February" :).
From the article : McMillan also provided me with additional console usage data for January and February of 2009. When you only consider the current generation of systems, the share of American's gaming time in January, Wii is the clear leader:
Wii - 43.2% Xbox - 360 38% PlayStation 3 - 18.8%
But before you declare Wii the winner, check out the rankings for February, which change dramatically:
Xbox 360 - 41% Wii - 39.6% PlayStation 3 - 19.4%
In February, after the holiday gift hype died down, Wii usage declined while Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 play time increased. This gave Xbox 360 the top spot.
This mistake is really bad. Nielsen need to improve their QC/editing process.
