You do realize that in the PS2s lifespan about 80 million of PS2's 120 million market share were casual gamers who only bought said cheap games. Truth is that games like Wii Fit Plus and Wii Play Motion Plus are better console sellers than God of War 3. Heck the hardcore market included, a lot of hardcore players like games like Wii Fit, and a lot of the hardcore who don't like Wii get Wii as their console simply because they rely on money from their parents.
Seriously can't believe Ken Kutaragi didn't see this coming. Visionary my ass. The powerful console has NEVER EVER won the console war. (N64 included. N64 was actually far more advanced than the PS because they stuck with ridiculously expensive cartridges which were faster loading and more reliable, but smaller in capacity. )
