CGI the extra sales for RE5 and SF4 came from japan which is sure will favor the PS3 also the 360 is already dead there.

 

So the ps3's userbase being higher than the 360's in Japan accounts for the superior sales of the ps3 versions of RE5 and SFIV, but the same does not work in reverse for other games?

You're not making any sense.  :P

if its about the user base then why the wii multiplat games didnt sell well ?

 

It's partially install base, and partially demographics.  The ps3 and 360 have smaller userbases than the Wii, but arguably a higher percentage of "hardcore" gamers.  Thus games like Call of Duty won't sell so well on the Wii, but games like Wii Fit and Mario Kart will blow the sales of any ps3/360 game out the water.

The ps3 and 360 are more harcore systems, with the main difference between the two being where those gamers are from, and what types of games they like (East vs West, that type of thing).

Asking why Call of Duty sells better on 360 would be no different than asking why Street Fighter sells better on ps3.
