It's not impressive that the Wii has 5.1 and the PS3 has 1.8 and SSBB sold 1 million. It's impressive that SSBB has beat so many of the PS3 games.
BECAUSE Wii sold MORE then PS3 in Japan? What is so IMPRESSIVE here? It`s NORMAL, when a game with BIGGER userbase sells MORE, then game on other syste will smaller userbase.

In other words, with half the userbase, SSBB beat most games on the PS3. That IS impressive. =)
YOU comparing PEOPLE with WAY different tastes to OTHER people with WAY DIFFERENT tastes, like them being SAME people with SAME TASTES.

FFX - 1.9 million first week, with 2.4 first 12 weeks, with 5 million PS2s at launch, and 5.9 million at the end of the 12 weeks.

Final Fantasy X - 3 mln. with 5 mln. PS2 on the launch.

Is there really BIG difference:
5 and 5.9 -> 84% of initial statement.
3 and 2.4 -> 80% - of initial statement.
