Ultimately, it's the only data that matters. There is simply no objective case to be made for Sony being the "king" last generation.

I've never bolded an entire comment until before. To whom does it not matter? There is no objective case? Are you even remotely aware how badly the PS3 crushed the Wii in terms of software quality? McDonald's sells more food than the premium steak house across the way, but it doesn't make the crap they heat under a lamp a better meal. Perhaps, if the Wii had offered own it's own customers more streak instead of Happy Meals, the Wii brand wouldn't have died so miserably. PS3 had more quality games by a mile. It had much more powerful hardware. It was a multimedia powerhouse. It had a much better online feature set. I won't even get into each of the individual ways, in each specific area that the PS3 demolished the Wii. The "king". A paper tiger next to it's comtemporaries. Including MS, a company I've had to work on not slamming reflexively. But it is what it is. Or was. Wii was popular though!

The PS3 "crushing" the Wii in software quality is purely subjective. I'd say it was the other way around. Similarly, the value of powerful hardware, multimedia capabilities, and online are all subjective. Since the Wii sold more, clearly a lot of people preferred what the Wii had to offer over graphics, multimedia, or online.
