That is brutal and an amazing counter!!! Even if u tape together the PS3 and the Xbox 360, they will never reach those sales!! (software) Now, the PS list has only cars and guns... Oh and some weird looking dolls... Same for the Xbox list but remove the doll and put some kiddie sports! =)

Well that's convenient.

Just exclude Mario Kart Wii, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Play, Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus to make it seem like less of a slaughter. Contrary to popular belief, only Wii Sports was significantly bundled. Even then, it stopped being bundled (primarily) a long time ago.

I can maybe give you Wii Play at the most, because that was bundled with Wiimotes (but not all of them) in the beginning.


It's true. By putting 'Wii' in the title, Wii owners feel forced to buy those games.

Maybe. Maybe not. We'll never know I guess.

At least I didn't buy them all (though I miss only two of the ones mentioned above). Also, there were some 'bad' selling ones, like Wii Play Motion and Wii Music.

Because Nintendo fans don't buy anything else?

We would if third party companies would step up more.  The few 3rd party games that had some actual effort put into them for the Wii usually sold decently.

Is this a real question? Why does the Wii sell more games???

Simple: the games on Wii appeal to a far broader audience than the teenage male-pandering PS360.

(Hold your fire there, fanboys, we all know this is true, so let's not get our panties in a bunch over the painfully obvious*.)

No. 'Playstation' isn't a console. 'Playstation' is a brand. The console is called 'Playstation 3'. Had Sony name it 'Paystation 3 All Star Battle Royale', then you'd have a point....
