yeah, It's great to see Skyrim higher than MW3 this week, too bad the Ps3 version has that bug

definitely getting Mario Kart, Skyrim, Skylanders, Skyward Sword and MW3 after I'm done with these damn tests
: P

also, everyone complained how Skyward Sword sales could be better, but still Ocarina Of Time is doing so good on 3DS, so i believe 100000's have pirated Skyward Sword on Wii

piracy killed PSP software, Wii still resists somehow, but hardcore games are the most pirated, I'm afraid Zelda could be a victim, like when Sega announced in the past that House of the Dead: Overkill was downloaded 1m times from torrent sites, which is sad, and probably a reason hardcore sales on Wii are less and therefore no more hardcore games for Wii : (

Ps3 and Xbox360 were close to e hacked, but MS/Sony avoided it, hopefully Nintendo can avoide it with 3DS when it comes..... : (

Oh, they have been hacked alright. Especially 360.

I know, but they pushed a hell of updates and fixes, restricting online, banning and stuff, so avoiding mass piracy

but Wii is hacked badly, someone can play any game through a usb, like with the PSP when playing a game from memory stick.... : (

i know a hell of people that have hacked PSP's and Wii's, simply download a game and play it, they don't even need a modchip or to burn to a disk, this sucks

Yeah and not to mention that you don't even need a Wii to play all its games.


Too be honest, this is one of the causes that the wii has weak third party support. I think Wii has lost at least 10% of software sales because piracy, majoritary third party games. In Brazil, I see there's three types of Wii users: 1) Super casual, bought the Wii because fo the Wii Sports, and only have 1 or 2 originals games, that came with the System and nothing else; 2) The piracy friend: Only have 1 or 2 games orignals that came with console, and has a Wii hack or buy pirate games; 3) The less of 5%: Has more than 5 originals games for the system. 

This type of situation I don't see with the owners of the PS3. If I would guess a number of PS3 users that buy originals games I would say: 90% at least, and who I know has about 10 games each! 

Xbox 360, for your turn, it's almost in the same situation of the Wii, but now with Microsoft Support I can see the sales of games rising a lot. 

And maybe (almost a certainly) this is one of the factor that in the big stores that I know (in different cities and states), I saw that among the 3 consoles, around 15% of the games is for Wii, and 85% for Xbox 360 and PS3 games (almost equal for them), and this too be optimistic about the Wii. In the past years the Wii support was bigger than today and the Xbox 360 was smaller.

Hardware sales otherwise, I think the three system is very close nowadays.

 

Ps: This numbers are my creation, so obviously are hypothetical.

Sorry about my poor English.
