Yes but more games aren't coming out, just those hardcore games, Wii has the casual games this gen, hence why your argument fails

LOL. So HOW many casual games from 3rd PARTIES did over 1 mln. on Wii?
5 games from 15? So how situation differs from GC? =))
What new games not from Nintendo you expect to break 1 mln. in 2008?

GC had 38 games and only 15 games not from nintendo. =]
And those games appeal to who, RPG gamers, fighter gamers, etc. hardcore games, with the exception of a couple I see no casual games, you see my point the PS3 appeals to one niche only

But, can you PROVE, that these games were buying same 20% of PS2 user base?
