Here I was thinking it was the PS3 people bought for "potential" (after you get a second job of course)
The Wii has massive future potential yes, but in most people eyes it has achieved considerably more than either of the other consoles in terms of great games (which it now has in droves, albeit a good 50% thanks to Nintendo themselves) This is why it sells well.
If the console is as you say, still not living up to the others, then why is it still selling more than the combined totals of the other two.... Had it not built up a decent library of games by now it would have been the fad that the doubters thought it was nearly 2 years ago.... A console cannot sell so well for 2 years straight with nothing going for it.

Console sales have very little to do with anything except the gullibility of the buying public, and good marketing.
The Wii library is laughable for a console with such a large user base. We see shovelware title after shovelware title, and hear about "AAA" titles like Animal Crossing (meh) and Wii Music (double meh) that are "coming".
Past the 4 or 5 good exclusives for the Wii (the other top ones are ports), it's a vast wasteland of mediocrity.
