The Wii had many reasons for success and subsequent drop off.  Sony had absolutely nothing at all whatsoever to do with it in any capacity.  

Sony's PS3 had everything to do with why the wii sold what it did. The only time nintendo's home consoles managed to sell 100 mil is when sony dropped the ball with the PS3. Sony's home consoles tend to be the market leader by far and what do you think happens when it screws up ? The sales go somewhere. Both MS and Nintendo's home consoles in that gen managed to do the best they ever did in that market ever and yet, it has nothing to do with sony?

Using your logic, Sony only got success because Nintendo screwed up on the N64. Had they used CDs instead of cartridges Playstation would no longer exist. ;)
