its funny how when you combine platforms, much of the Wii's strength disappears.

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 ad 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 exactly the same.

This is kind of a gross oversimplification of the state of things
