The second chart really helps explain that growth. In the U.S. market, 43% of players say they use only Nintendo hardware, and this is counting all dedicated home systems, as well as portable systems. And then another 30% say that they play with Nintendo platforms as well as other platforms from other manufacturers. On the other hand, only 23% of all players say that they play either Sony or Microsoft systems exclusively. So put another way, more than three-quarters of all players here in the U.S. are playing on Nintendo platforms.

So let’s move forward and talk a little bit about Nintendo 3DS.

As we look to the future, we've got a stunning lineup moving forward. We've got a launch of "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D." It has a metacritic score in the high 90s right now, just like it did when it launched on the Nintendo 64 version 13 years ago, and "Ocarina of Time 3D" will launch here in North America on June 19 and really kicks off a very strong slate of content for this platform.

Yesterday, we announced details on five key upcoming titles from a first-party perspective that have very wide appeal. Each has unique features and let me just mention a couple. So think about with "Mario Kart," eight people playing wirelessly multiplayer, or with a title like "Kid Icarus" combating with AR cards, all in 3D. And these are things that simply can't be found on any other systems.

And the most immediate impact of what we're looking to do on Nintendo 3DS became apparent this week. The first full-system upgrade just happened and it now means that there's a new Internet browser, access to digital downloads via the Nintendo eShop, as well as free downloads of 3D classics, "Excitebike," which is an NES classic remastered in full 3D, as well as the launch of the "Pokédex 3D," which lets fans search, sort and view their favorite Pokémon in full 3D.

And then as you can tell from this slide, we also enjoy very strong third-party support for the platform, and this lineup of key franchises continues to expand.

So now let me briefly touch on Wii U, and we're going to do this because I'm predicting that we'll certainly have a few questions here this morning. I just want to again frame what's going on from a U.S. perspective.
