Even if it is true with the GC its hardware sales were no where near the Wii at this point and had fallen sharply off. It wouldn't be surprising that 3rd party sold when the system was selling well (for all of 2 months) then fell off with system sales. That's especially the case since new 3rd party titles disappeared as sales dropped. The Wii has seen good 3rd party sales with its strong sales, so long as it continues to sell well so will the new 3rd party games that will be made.
