it will never happen, cause PS360 (+PC) will always sell more third parties software than on Wii. That's sad but it's the price to pay for laucnhing a GC+, as succesfull it can be.

 

Wow, it's going to take a while for you to hear everything you need to, so make sure you're sitting down (why wouldnt you be)

 

1) The difference between a Gamecube and a Wii is much more significant than the difference between a PS3 and PS2 or 360 and xbox. That is why the Wii is winning this generation

2) In the past, 3rd parties have sold almost as many games on the 360 as they have on the Wii, which is impressive I'll admit, because the Wii only has slightly better 3rd party software sales, but has a much higher userbase.

 

Or is it that impressive? The Wii didn't initially get the big 3rd party releases, so to still have their 3rd party games outsell the 360's is very impressive for the Wii. This situation is going to look even better for Nintendo as they continue to increase marketshare, and as 3rd parties start to shift their attention to the Wii (see Dragon Quest)

 

3) Even if the combined 3rd party sales of a PS360PC games outsells the Wii version, so what? It costs a lot more to develop a game for 3 platforms than 1, especially for the PS3
