I don't know how old this is... But firstly i would like to point this out -
"global installed base is over 67 million for Wii and there are 120 million in the DS family"
Wii checks out with VGC numbers of ~68M
DS though... VGC has it at 127M
Overtracked or not?
As for the 3rd party stuff. The best way to encourage them = $$
And did Nintendo just say they were incapable of making games like BioShock 2? I call bullshit on that one. Metroid Prime has proven they know how to handle first-person stuff.
