what I find funny in all this is PS3/360 fans are rejoycing that their sales are better then Wii. But by what? 50,000 units?

PS3/360 have SO MANY better games than Wii has and yet Wii is still selling above 100,000 units.

I find this ironic how a console with lack of new good games is managing such numbers. Especially when 3rd party have abandoned the Wii like every other Nintendo console.

Looking at 2011 and BASED ON MY TASTE, there is probably 10-15 games I will buy on PS3 about 10 on 360 and maybe 3 on Wii. 

The key thing here is by your taste.

By many people's tastes, the Wii is a great console with a great library.

I have around 15 360 games, 12 PS3 games but 65 Wii games, and I want to get another 10 via backlog and another 15 this year.

If that's the case, and with the advertising, why would the Wii drop so low?

I too have about 60wii games. Just saying the last year and ATM so far 2011 is looking lackluster for the Wii.

Most the games I have are not on shelf anymore. ATM if I go to a shop (well at least in Australia) it is all games that are aimed at casuals.  Comparing that to 360/PS3 bench and there is all these great games out. 

The point I was trying to make was that even with a weaker lineup it is still managing great numbers.

I personally feel that PS3 is high atm because of piracy being open now. 360 had the kinect affect which boosted sales.

Yeah, that seems pretty likely

Although, last year had a great line-up of games, and this year (IMO) looks even better. I won't list them, but games like:

The Last Story

Zelda: Skyward Sword

Xenoblade

Conduit 2

Kirby's Epic Yarn

And many others, indicate that the market is turning away from "casual" support. People just need to look past all the shovelware and they'll find some truly great games out there

problem is only shovelware is on shelves here atm (with maybe 2-3 actual games). It is hard finding an actual game I would like.  In comparission to PS3/360 when I look at their shelf most the games you see you recognise what they are as you read about them online and seen videos etc...
