@Loud hot white: I doubt PS3 turns profit overall. It has already wasted more money, than what the PS2 made. And it reached more then 120M harware sales and enormous software sales.
@Blue Strife: First you pointed out that there are other reasons than the price, that sell the Wii, then you said that after the price goes down, people will start buying PS360. So, which one is it? Before you answer, keep in mind that 360 has been considerably cheaper than Wii for months now.
And yes, 199 PS3 would be crushed by Wii, since the time it would take for PS3 to reach 199, Wiis software library would be so much bigger, that there would be little to no incentive for people to buy PS3 instead of Wii.
So, why would people want to switch to PS3 or 360? Even majority of the so called hardcore stick to one console, why then the "casual" or the new audience would?
Please, quit the trolling about the games library, since we both know that PS360 have nothing but dumbed-down cheap PC-ports.
The best projects tend to hit at the end of the gen. That's nothing new. But if you really want to look what is happening with Wiis 3rd party support, look late 2006-early 2007 and compare it to late 2008. And the first party support isn't going anywhere, it's just that we don't know when which game will hit the market.
Wiis library will be the best, i don't think there's any doubt about it. People complained when NES came out, people complained when PSX came out, people complained when DS came out and people complained when Wii came out (and still are, and without any actual reason). You notice the pattern? Each started from similer situation with lowsy 3rd party support, stole the market and ended up having a great library of games, which will happen to Wii too. Besides, Wii is already in very good situation, in comparision to the others i mentioned, since it has some great 1st party titles (like SMG, TP, MKW, FE, Brawl, Wii Fit, etc) out and many are still left. 3rd parties are moving to Wii, while some already have put top-notch titles on it, and with its monster software sales, it's no wonder. Wii has proven to be a viable platform for publishers and most of all, very profitable.
As what it comes to PC/PS3/360 multiplats, the argument is kind of moot, because you could do a PC/Wii multiplat for the same price and reach even bigger audience.
