Well at any rate, I think you can see how poorly this comparison is going for the Wii by this point with 24 of the top 34 games for each system being PS3 games while only 10 are Wii games.
At any rate there are another 20 Wii Games and 44 PS3 games to go before we get down to Wii Sports and its Game Rankings score of 76.562. Including Heavenly Sword which has a quite respectable review score of 80.659 by comparison. There are 23 PS3 games with scores between those of Super Paper Mario and Heavenly Sword and only 7 Wii games in that range.
There are 12 Wii Games and 20 PS3 games that come between Heavenly Sword and Wii Sports with a Game Rankings score of 76.562. It seems like the only thing that you were right about is that Wii Sports has a higher score than Folklore which only has a Game Rankings score of 75.825. There are no Wii Games and 3 PS3 games that have a Game Rankings score between Wii Sports and Folklore.
To put it bluntly, anyone can see from these numbers that the PS3 simply decimates the Wii as far as the number of high quality games for each system goes and that the Wii simply does not deserve to be selling in the numbers that it does.
In conclusion, according to Game Rankings there are 75 PS3 games with a Game Rankings score between 75 and 97.419 (Grand Theft Auto IV the PS3 version which is the highest rated game of this console generation beating out the 360 version by .778 of a point) while there are only 36 Wii games in this range.

Well, let's look at that a bit more deeply shall we.
Grand Theft Auto IV is also on 360. However, it is the PS3 version that is the highest rated game of this console generation.
The Orange Box (PC version's Game Rankings score = 96.306. It is the definitive version.)(Also, a patch was released for the PS3 version sometime ago that improves the game from its original version that only received an 88.584. I don't know how much it improves the PS3 version scorewise, but it is supposed to significantly improve the PS3 version.)
You came up with ten multiconsole games on that list where the 360 versions have higher Game Rankings' scores than the PS3 version.
Let's see if I can do the same:
Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) = 97.419 > Grand Theft Auto IV (360) = 96.641.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3) = 86.655 > Ninja Gaiden 2 (360) = 82.057.
Unreal Tournament 3 (PS3) = 86.564 > Unreal Tournament 3 (360) = 82.525.
GRID (PS3) = 86.424 > GRID (360) = 86.163.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 (PS3) = 86.387 > Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 (360) = 86.057.
Madden NFL 09 (PS3) = 86.288 > Madden NFL 09 (360) = 85.779.
NHL 08 (PS3) = 85.904 > NHL 08 (360) = 84.993
Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution (PS3) = 85.090 > Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution (360) = 84.827
Looks like you actually got me. Only 8 of the multiconsole games on that list on PS3 scored higher than on the 360 in comparison to 10 multiconsole games scoring higher on the 360 than on the PS3. However I did demonstrate two things here.
1.) GTA IV is better on the PS3 than on the 360. the only reason to buy the 360 version is for the DLC. However, as LA Noire recently going cross platform shows and with the PS3 version of GTA IV selling so much better than the 360 version in Europe and Japan, then one can expect that same dlc to also be making its way to the PS3 version of GTA IV in some form.
2.) Most 360 fans say that multi-console games are always better on the 360. Well 8 versus 10 doesn't equal always. And the more recent games on the list demonstrate a trend in which the PS3 versions of multi-console games have in fact been better than the 360 versions. For example, Grand Theft Auto IV, Madden NFL 09, GRID, Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Unreal Tournament 3 (to be honest, I was surprised that Warfighter 2 and UT3 are better on PS3; however, I guess that being able to play these games for free online offsets a bit of the advantage that Live gives with achievements when you consider that you also have to pay $50.00 a year to play games on Live.) and Devil May Cry 4 [DMC 4 (PS3) = 84.057 > DMC 4 (360) = 83.914 narrowing the margin to 9 to 10 which will be altered to 10 to 10 by Eternal Sonata with more on the way like Rage, New Prince of Persia, Mirror's Edge, and Final Fantasy XIII all of which should add to the total number of PS3 multiconsole games that are better than their 360 counterparts ] have all been better on the PS3.
Fixed for more completeness.
