I have made the same observation. A lot of my friends were PS-2 fanboys. Now they have switched to the Wii or DS.
Microsoft has currently a problem with its pace. Once they have the falcon ready together with a price drop they are probably back in the game. The PS-3 on the other hand will only become acceptable for most people when it dropped to 200-300 Euro max. , while at the moment it stays stubornly at 600 Euro...
These are simply prices that people who want to play games won't pay! Either you have other interests in it or it is simply a none issue. Another point will be much more important: How profitable are the games for its producers. At the moment we are still in a stage where they can get additional support by Micrtosoft or Sony, but this will decrease! If the games do not get their money back, support for thius console will decrease.
If my numbers are still correct, you could say a Wii game costs about 50% of a Xbox 360 game, which costs about 50% of a PS-3 game. While their are ways to lower these figures, this normally concures with a sharp decrease in performance.
