POLL: Is Apple a threat?

The latest MCV online survey has gone live, in which you can express your opinion on crucial industry issues.

This week, we ask if the Apple’s decision to market the iPod Touch as a games console will pose a significant threat to the DS and PSP markets. Simply scroll down the homepage and make your choice on the right hand side.

Last week, we asked if the Wii would still be able to compete with Xbox 360 and PS3 after its rivals both received price cuts, yielding the following results:

Yes 43%
No 57%

While the results seem to be fairly evenly divided over the Wii’s future, the slight majority believes Nintendo’s console will struggle to compete with the now-cheaper Xbox 360 and PS3.
