And how big is the userbase of the Wii compared to the GC? GC sold 21.74m worldwide, the Wii has sold 65m worldwide to this date. So the Wii userbase is 3 times bigger NOW (and continuing) than GC's userbase ever was. So of course there are more people out there to buy your games. Viewtiful Joe could've have 3x its sales if it had been released on the Wii right now. There are NO excuses for the lack of quality 3rd party games being sold on the Wii. imho, no excuse.

No, it just does not work that way.  There are countless examples showing that it doesn't.

Userbase is flat out bullshit as a sales argument, with few exceptions (like Shenmue couldn't make a profit because the Dreamcase userbase was too small). Most of the time, a game sells what it sells for loads of other factors.
