Hirai: Rivals can’t compete with PS3’s exclusives

[Bodhesatva]

Such as Little Big Planet, Resistance 2, SoCom, God Of War 3, Killzone 2, MaG, Motorstorm: Pacific Rift.

Little Big Planet is possibly my most anticipated console game of the year, and I'm quite sure all of the games mentioned here will do just fine for themselves and get good reviews.

I also think it's quite possible that Wii Fit and Animal Crossing -- just those two -- will outsell all of these games combined, let alone Mario Galaxy, Wii Play, Mario Kart, Smash Brothers, Twilight Princess,  and Mario Party, all of which are bigger franchises than anything on this list by a wide margin (as in, more than double their sales. Although MaG and LBP are untested). And then, of course, there is Wii Sports.

In terms of variety and "hardcore" gamer appeal, Sony wins, though. Over Microsoft obviously (their first party is Halo and Gears of War), but over Nintendo too, I think.
