I think the PS3 Slim and the new marketing was the best business moves this year, even though they are far from first place sales wise. If you game and a movie buff, the PS3 is an awesome machine.
Wii suffers from an odd man out problem when it comes to the latest and glitziest games and their marketing campaigns, Wii is absent from that scene. Apart from that, I'm pretty sure Wii owners are very happy with their own exclusives list of games. Aside from Wii and all the complaints people have of it (myself included), Nintendo won both the console and the handheld market by an unbeatable margin.
Piracy for Wii games in my country is amazingly high, there are a lot of shops here that sell modded Japanese and Korean consoles, with nothing but pirated DVDs of Wii games. Some of the deals are - buy a console get 10 games free. There is a market here, obviously not big relatively speaking, but Ninty is losing out on software sales for themselves and 3rd parties here and I assume, in a lot of smaller countries not officially included in their defined regions.
For 360, they should just bundle the damn WiFi adapter and scrap the Arcade, who buys Arcade anyways, without a hard disk when a lot of games require it? I'm just full of qq when it comes to MS ... tsk sigh ... Oh yeah, they provide the best developer support of all 3 consoles, this is what the other guys really should learn from MS. Oh and they are super aggressive and competitive, which pushes everyone to do better, if not for XBL, would there even be a PSN with Sony losing so much already? ... well that wasn't so bad :] ...
Edit: ok duh, I gravitated to overall review and not 2009 sowee (>o<")
