In my humble opinion, Wii is following the GBA path having very strong early years and then suddenly dropping out of the spotlights. In a grander scale, of course, but it has no impending successor as an excuse. Looking how things are happening right now, the same is happening to the DS (in it's own scale, mind you) so maybe is just the way Nintendo platforms behave nowadays. By the way, this generation is way more balanced already. It is not hard to compare and see: Worldwide hardware 31st July 2004 -

I love how this is the most balance generation. I hope people remembered that the PS2 came out a year before the other systems. So people got PS2s, and nothing else. Also at that time Sony had major exclusive titles that keep the other consoles from gaining ground. Unlike now where the Wii was the last system on the market yet it's 30 million ahead. So The Wii is controlling this generation as much as the PS2 was. The Wii has still out sold both systems every month this year expect for last month. After Microsoft did another of their please buy our systems price cuts. The Wii has still outsold the PS3 in Japan so far this year. Even with the improve amount of games the PS3 has been getting. So in other words make this thread again in Jan of 11. If Kinect, Move, or a new price cut. Helps the 360 or PS3 to out sale the Wii for more than 3 to 4 months. Then the Wii will really have a problem.
