if youre going off of pure sales numbers of wii and ds and calling that an install base as if each and every owner is unique, youre being intellectually dishonest.

1) most DS owners owned more than one model of DS, be it dsi or dslite or an xl/ll variation
2) many wii owners also owned one or more DS's
3) DS's of all models were prone to breaking at the hinge through rough handling and accidental drops, many sales were from buying replacement consoles too.

4) many wii sales were to non-gamers who would never again buy another console, so counting them as a loss is disingenious because they were and always would be a one time sale.

you cant just add up total sales and act like thats the number of unique customers
