Xbox sales seem way too low, 5:1 is crazy.

It's not very arguable at all. Nintendo's first party is tailored towards a niche part of the market and they absolutely love those games but the rest of the market does not.  I'm sure there's some game lists with metacore averages floating around here if you feel like saying otherwise.

A niche part of the market? Their exclusives sell better than any other exclusives out there....

 

Something being niche doesn't mean it's not arguable whether it's better or not. I guess you might as well through out any niche PS4 exclusives cause who gives a fuck amirite?

The individual games sell better because there's relatively no third party games as competition and those games are tailored made for those fans. Those fans bought the console for those games.

When a console has a lot of games, the sales are spread out over all those games instead of being concentrated sales on fewer games. 

         Software sales (in millions) on platform                                   http://www.vgchartz.com/platforms/    

                                               Hardware      Software           Tie ratio         Games total

3 PlayStation 3 (PS3) 86.86         974.12           11.21          3,315

4 Wii (Wii)                 101.18         965.78            9.55           2,808

Likely, the wii likely has games with higher individual game sales that the PS3 does because it has less games but with the similar software sales. 

Also, don't get triggered from the word niche. Nothing wrong with games or genres being niche.
