Marco Arment posted this graph today, which shows some relative sales numbers of what he calls “obscure game consoles” (which presumably just means those outside the Microsoft/Sony/Sega/Nintendo dominion) right up against tablets which aren’t the iPad.
It’s true — the numbers do kind of put things in perspective about just how well non-iPad tablets are selling. We will also say that the TurboGrafx 16 launched at a price of US$249.99 way back in 1989, and you can compare for yourself just how inflation has matched that up against these other tablets. But sure, other than that: no comment.
