Lets put it this way Bruce over 14 3rd party published games have sold over half a million on Wii, by comparison PS3 has only 13 third party published games over half a million, third parties are not being shut out on the Wii, and Wii software sales are very strong for a system that you consider a fad, obviously its not just a Wii Sports machine

 

Blimey, do you read what you post? According to you PS3 and Wii have virtually the same number of 3rd party titles with over half a million sales. Yet there are more than twice as many Wiis sold as there are PS3s. So the Wii is doing less than half as well as the PS3 for third party AAAs. And the PS3 has had less time for AAAs to be developed. And PS3 AAAs take longer to develop. Which makes the Wii performance look even worse. Unlike you I am not a fanboy. I don't care which manufacturer sells more consoles or games than another manufacturer. What is far more important is the trends and the effect that they have on commercial realities. I have been involved in this professionally since 1978 so have seen a lot of machines come and go.

 Do you read what you post, Sony lacks strong first party like Nintendo has, duh of course Nintendo in house would have a bigger share of the pie, but the fac that on a system that is supposedly built on third party they can't beat Nintendo which has a very strong first party developers is very telling that the Wii is legit.

 

Again define AAA's, most of the games on PS3 that sold over half a million are not high quality games, but flops in terms of reviews, they just sold well.

 

You have been ignoring the trends the trends sho Wii being more than a fad but an actual shift in the market 

 

When you say that Sony lacks strong first party you demonstrate that you haven't the faintest idea what you are talking about. This is the ranting of a fanboy.

 Compared to Nintendo?  No they aren't even close
