Yeah, there's a reason Nintendo was preaching consoles (or maybe gaming) were dying. Japan was the best/easiest example of what was happening. Too bad it seems the Wii couldn't steer this off course.

To be fair, though, unincluding the competing consoles makes it look worse than it probably is. The PS1 era had the N64 and Saturn doing decently well, but it doesn't show up on your charts.

Also, what's with the huge discrepancy in sales (with our own data) for FFX? Did it really sell that much worse than DQVIII? Barely outselling XII seems hard to imagine, too...


Yes, of course the current generation is nowhere near finished. Wii can actually still achieve huge sales. Yes it looks worse including PS3 and 360 and not the status for runner-up consoles  in previous generations, maybe that was a mistake. I just wanted to compare where the current sales were this generation, so for comparison this gen with earlier generations then compare Wii´s software sales with NES,SNES,PS1 and PS2 and keep it mind that Wii will most likely score several more millionsellers.
