"Will a console that is losing market share yet can sell more 3rd party software then the PS3, and a LOT more then the Wii, see increased third party support as a result?"
My answer? no |
Fix'd. Surprise surprise, market share isn't even close to everything.
OT: Well, no actually. Many(Or is it just Capcom?) companies have stated they are going to be doing most things multiplat from now on...but for my part, I REALLLLLY hope for some PS3 exclusives. I'm having buyer's remorse right now and I've only owned one for 1 week.
PLEASE make KH3, Condemned 3, BoF5(Dragons quarter sucked) and whatever Tales game is after the Wii version PS3 exclusives>_<

Uh...no. The Wii is beating the 360 SW wise in EU and Japan. Only region where the the 360 is beating the Wii SW wise is NA. Though I'm not sure how big the gap is.
OT: Doubt it. Most devs see PS3 and 360 as the better choice and I don't really expect that to change. In Japan that won't happen at all after the DQ X announcement. The West is more debateable, but like I said, most devs see the PS3 and 360 as the better choice.

For 3rd party software? I want my proof. Show me the many 3rd party games Wii has sold more then 360 has in 3rd party games.

It's not just about raw number of units sold. It's also about profits. Take 2 has had a very rough year despite the release of GTAIV.
It wouldn't surprise me if Carnival Games and Mario & Sonic At The Olympics turned more of a profit than some of the biggest 360 exclusives.
Consoles owned: Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PSP, DS, PS3
