I think the one thing that will keep the Wii from surpassing the 360 in this race is that its userbase seems less inclined to spread the wealth, as it were. Almost everyone who owns a Wii owns certain games—Smash Bros, Mario Kart, Wii Play, Wii Fit, etc—and other titles seem to be victims of their success, somewhat.
You'll notice that the numbers of actual copies sold for the top ten selling games for 360 and Wii, the Wii has sold vastly more. To be a top-selling game on the Wii, you need to sell over 5 million, not just over 1. On the 360, the top-selling games sell quite a bit less overall, but there is a much larger spread of titles selling a million. It's possible that the userbase for 360 is actually more diverse than the Wii's, at least in terms of the types of software that they're willing to drop money for.
