A good applied example here of the strategic interdependence and non-price competition that occurs in oligopolistic markets. This example focuses on the games console market, where in response to the Nintendo Wii’s motion-sensor controllers, Sony have unveiled their own one; whilst Microsoft is joining the party later this year to go even further with a full body motion controller(!). Its a good example of how oligopolistic industries interdependence (follower-leader relationship) can be of benefit to consumers via dynamic efficiency aims.
