Well Neither Sony nor Microsoft saw Nintendo as a threat this gen. Before they were not competing with Wii because they didn't see Wii as a threat. Now they are not competing with Wii because they realise they have no chance.

 

i dont see wii as a threat to ps360

both sets of products appeal to different types of gamers

the games and services that are ofered on ps360 are far higher quality than that on wii imo.

ps360 is aimed primarily at the core gamer

wii is primarily aimed at family/party/girl gaming mostly with a few exceptions, hopefully nintendo will change thier strategy and push out more proper games, but i wouldnt count on it. there making so much money they dont need to.

nintendo have done well though with thier product, i congratulate them for thier vision, unfortunatly this gen wii isnt for me.

 

The Wii is actually a threat to the PS3/Xbox 360 because they are actually targeting all gamers. Nintendo has released casual as well as core games. They can not help that third parties want to create shallow casual games. Eventually the core games will come either from third parties or Nintendo. The PSX, PS2, and the GBA did not become successful consoles because they targeted the core. They became Successful because they offered games for all gamers, casuals and the core.
