The one small argument I would have to refute this is that the Wii price cut seems to be loosing steam and not have as big an effect as price cut usually have.
Q1 2010 sales are the same as Q1 2009 at a 50$ lower price point..
Some will argue sales would have been higher were it not for stock issues. But don't forget that in January 2009 Wii had stock issues in the US too....( and please don't bring up the software line up, we're talking Animal Crossing and Wii Music vs NSMBWii, so 2010 obviously has the better software..)

Wii's out of stock perpetually in the west. And production is confirmed lower than where we were a year ago... frankly I'm at a bit of loss as to what you're trying to get at exactly?
The one region with no supply constraints (Japan) has Wii selling 50% more this Q1, almost doubling the current weekly baseline with an arguably worse new release schedule. This is "loosing steam"?

Last I checked Wii had no supply issue in Europe, so your definition of the West must mean North America.
Q1 2009 = Q1 2010 sales for europe...
PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !
PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
