IMO it would have been unthinkable for the PS3 to do Wii numbers at this point of time, even if there would be such demand I think Sony simply wouldn't have produced the amount needed to meet demand or keep pricing up and games releases down until cost reduced enough. The PS3 is a console built for the near future, if the PS3 would have done Wii-like numbers it would have posed serious short term financial risks for Sony.
Nintendo and Sony have very different strategies, Microsoft seems to try to take middle ground but receives huge competition from Nintendo regarding the lowend market as well as strong competition from the PS3 with regard to the high-end market.
