Piracy may be an issue here but lets keep things in perspective. There are no core 3rd party titles on the Wii of the caliber of Monster Hunter. I think some people want to take poor games(Madworld, Conduit, etc.) and try to make it sound like they are just as good a game as Bioshock, Borderlands, Dragon Age.
Those games sold wll enough. Sure not into the millions but they do not need to sell millions to make money and they would sell on the HD consoles either. PS3 has 1 million more consoles than the Wii did when NMH launched. Only sold 4k more on PS3 for the opening week. ONe cant be pirated but one can. If what you were trying to claim had any truth to it the PS3 version should be selling more. It isnt though.
Wii has what 80 million sold? It already has something the PS2 never had with 140 million consoles. Games that sold over 20milion copies. NSMBWii is another thing that shows you are wrong.
Fact is you cant take niche titles that would fail on any console and show them as proof that Wii gamers only download their games. It has more to do with the quality of game and advertising than anything else. Notice how MH3 has ads on TV and is selling well
