its funny how when you combine platforms, much of the Wii's strength disappears. Such as in this chart where only three Wii games appear instead of the usual 5-6 in the top ten when you use split SKU's by platform.
This generation perceptions would be totally different if there was only one HD console, but two motion consoles to split sales (the reverse of now, with only one Wii, but HD twins). Then everybody would say how the HD was dominating and the motion consoles were failures, even though the sales ratio might be exactly the same.
Illustration: current:
Wii 1m
PS3 500k
360 500K
Media+fans: "Utter Wii domination!"
Hypothetical:
HD console 1m
Motion console 1 500k
Motion console 2 500k
Media +fans: "HD domination!"
But in reality the market is split between HD/motion exactly the same in both cases.
