Hmm, I draw a few conclusions from that. - 3rd parties are doing ok on the Wii in America but are sucking in Japan. - 3rd parties would be doing well on PS3 in Japan if it were actually selling consoles, probably b/c Sony's first party hits are more western-oriented. - 3rd parties aren't doing as well on PS3 in America probably 'cause the 360 is stronger there and people are buying their multiplats for that system. People also seem to buy multiplats on PS3 ahead of Wii, but Wii's exclusives keep it bumped up over PS3. Top 5 3rd-party games in America with sales added up for each system: Wii = 1.83M PS3 = 1.22M 360 = 6.29M (over double the holiday time and triple the total sales time, closer to 2.5M over a similar period probably) So 360 is doing the best in the US, no surprise with its large userbase lead and its hardcore userbase. PS3 sells more per console than Wii but 2/3 less overall since its install base is so much lower. I wouldn't expect too many western 3rd-party exclusives on the PS3 to be announced in the near future when they could potentially sell twice as much on the 360 alone.
