Of course there can only be one winner, that doesn't mean that whoever doesn't win have done bad.

Depends on what your idea of winning is. Sales? Profits? Games? Power? Features? One could argue that every company won the 7th gen.

But let's be honest. The Wii won. 😉

Doesn't matter the metric, winner is still a single entity.

You see a race in the olympic, the one that finished first the 100m is the winner even if the 3rd place have made more money through sponsorship.

So yes Wii sold more on its gen, the reason a big portion don't consider it a winner is because they weren't competing with PS3 and X360 by admission of Nintendo and Sony themselves.
