Is there really some grounds for that the wii would have expanded the market that much?
If you compare the leading/second/third place consoles from last 2 gens(from the launches) you will see that:
Wii has done:
3,2m better than ps2 in america
3,1m better in eu
1,5m worse in jap
=4,8m better than last gen number 1 console overall
360 has done:
3,3m better than xbox in america
4,5m better in eu
500k better in jap
=8,3m better than last gen number 2 console overall
ps3 has done:
500k better than gc in america
6,5m better in eu
200k worse in jap
=6,8m better than last gen number 3 console overall.
Raw numbers wise second and third place consoles have done better than wii and percentage wise a lot better. :O
