PS3 owners lead the way in HD display connectivity, 360/Wii not far behind
Nielsen data indicates that PS3 owners are mostly connected to HD displays, but they are closely followed by Xbox 360 and Wii owners. The PS3 came tops with 71 percent but the Xbox 360 and Wii weren't all that far behind with 66 and 65 percent respectively. Component cables remain the most widely used method for connecting consoles to displays but the availability of HDMI connections on both the PS3 and new Xbox 360 SKU's is expected to drive up HDMI adoption.

This year, falling HDTV prices along with the increase of Blu-ray, HD-DVD and HD game titles will continue to drive adoption of HD technology among gamers.
The Nielsen data shows that PS3 owners are the most connected to HD displays, followed closely by Xbox 360 and Wii owners. Across all consoles owners, LCD is the HD display technology of choice, followed by plasma display and rear projection TVs.
What about connections? Component cables remain the most widely used for connecting consoles to displays.
However, the availability of HDMI inputs on next generation consoles, like the PS3, will continue to drive HDMI adoption.
- 71% of PS3 consoles were connected to an HD display (either LCD, plasma, front/rear projector).
- 66% of Xbox 360 and 65% of Wii were connected to an HD display.
