I think they are saying that revinues of Playstation 3 software has been greater than revinues from XBox 360 and Wii software since the PS3 launched. This really shouldn't be that much of a surprise to anyone ... In the launch Week the PS3 sold (rougly) half as many units as Microsoft or Nintendo had (up to that point) and had an attach rate somewhere in the 2 to 4 games per system range; hardware and software has dropped off quit a bit since then though.
