Nintendo was a little late getting into the online gaming, but they’ve made tremendous strides since the release of the Nintendo Wii. Now it looks like they are already leading the way when it comes to having the most downloadable games available.
According to GamePro, in a recent article at PCWorld:
84 percent of downloadable 360 games have online functionality compared with 45 percent of PS3 titles and zero percent for Wii games.
Only 12 percent of downloadable games are original titles, says EEDAR, especially given Nintendo’s lopsided contribution of older games.
In terms of median game prices, PS3 titles are the cheapest at $5.99, followed by Virtual Console games at $6, and Xbox Live Arcade games at $10, the most expensive of the three. Furthermore, 80 percent of the downloadable content on the PlayStation 3 is free compared to just 29 percent on Xbox 360.
