I can't believe how well the Wii is doing. I was figuring on an even console race this generation but the chances of that happening are slim to none now. I really overestimate the willingness of people to pay over 300 bucks for a game system. At this rate the Wii will hold a larger market share than the PS2 did o_O. Here is an interesting question: Will the Wii sell more software than the PS2 did in it's lifetime? For the amount of systems sold the PS2 really didn't do all that great on software sales, but I think part of that can be attributed to about 1/3 of PS2 owners having to replace theirs at least once (twice for me). This is unlikely to be the case with the Wii as Nintendo systems are all built to last (I still have every original Nintendo system ever made, minus the virtual boy). The Wii won't outsell the PS2 in hardware, but how are the chances that it will in software?
