Wow, that's interesting MakingMusic, I had no idea.

Just to add some numbers, I'll add some numbers to that.

Console : First party titles

Nintendo 64: 42 titles

Playstation 1: 75 titles

Gamecube: 49 titles

Playstation 2: 84 titles

Wii: 25

Playstation 3: 20

So this generation is the first since Sony entered that Nintendo has made more games than Sony on their home console.

Handhelds:

DS: 82
PsP: 58


For million sellers:

N64: 31 million sellers, total of 108M sales

PS: 34 million sellers, total of 111M sales


GC: 26 million sellers, total of 64.5M

Ps2: 29 million sellers, total of 81.5M sales


Wii: 14 million sellers, total of 82.6M

Ps3: 5 million sellers, total of 10.3M

Handhelds:

DS: 27 million sellers, total of 146.6M sales

PsP: 3 million sellers, 4.5M sales


So, Wii has almost passed Ps2 in 1st party software sales, only 2 years into the generation.

Almost, because Sony made around 40 titles on Ps2 that sold less than 1M, and they totalled around 10M, so it is still higher.

Wii has almost passed GC, even if you exclude Wii Sports.
