Even if you take away Wii Sports, the Wii is doing pretty well being that it hasn't had the quantity of major releases this year that the competition has had. On top of that, one has to wonder how much of an impact the virtual console has on game sales because I'm far more likely to buy a good VC game that a crappy Wii game.

If you take away Wii Sports (and I wont even mention Wii Play that should be taken away as well as nobody would be buying that if it wastn bundled with a wiimote ) then you can clearly see the Wii ratio is the worst of the 3 new machines .5 million machines buying 15 million games is 3 games for machine ,even less if you take away Wii Play .The 360 sees 7 million buying 50 million (around 7 games for console ) and PS3 has 2 millions buying nearly 9 million games so some 4.5 games for machine.The 360 ratio can be bigger because being one year more in the market (more opportunities for the players to buy more games ) but everything accounted the PS3 and 360 ratios are better than the Wii.

 

 let's take away the whole ps3 then, nobody buys anything!
