Sony PS3 outsell Wii two months by 40.000 units, just need keept the same ryhtm they will catch Nintendo WII in someting like 10 YEARS, LOL!!! and thats just about Japan market, and hoping they anounce something like others 10 Final Fantasy games.

The reason PS3 can´t catch Wii is because the cost of development and time required makes their games appear in too little quantities. They can´t be a real competition tyo Wii.

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 05th Jan 2008 to 26th Apr 2008:

Console Wii PS3
Japan
1,255,487
385,431

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 03rd Jan 2009 to 25th Apr 2009:

Console Wii PS3
Japan
478,047
469,385

sales are down for wii 38% while sales are up for ps3 by 21.7%

if the "same ryhtm" you speak of kept up, next year it would look like this:

wii: 296,390
ps3: 571241

and then the next year:

wii:194022
ps3: 725200

@500k gap difference a year.... then by my calculations it would take 10 years.....

EDIT: yes, there is no competition. They are in different markets appealing to different base with different product based on similar technology and goal.

like PC vs Mac
cheese vs cream
prince vs michael jackson
cartoon network vs anime network
