What happened?!?

 

What happened is your maths, whilst correct, is hardly valid.

 

First of all, Wii games sell better over time. It is pretty much guarrenteed at this stage that the Wii version will end up higher than 12%

 

More importantly, you're using an invalid comparison. The right way of looking at it is

CoD3 sold 0.63 million

CoD5 has sold 0.6 million so far, and should eventually hit a million, minimum.

Therefore, the Wii's FPS userbase is increasing

Just not at rate that the PS3 and 360's FPS userbase is increasing?

 

Hmm, I would want to see a full report detailing the total number of FPS games released on each console per quarter, and the sales of each before I can comment on that.

 

It seems to me like at the start of the gen, very few FPS games came to the Wii. Nowadays most of them are. So even if they don't have as big an increase in sales per game, the Wii FPS sales could still be rising at a comparable or higher rate than the PS360
