Edit: DIdn't read the top most part. So why is the wii not considered the same market?

 

The wii was left out because it is not technically close to the PS3 or Xbox360 in capability, therefore there are different hurdles to face when making a game that works on the Xbox360 or PS3 work on the Wii. For example the art assets would need to be optimised for a lower polycount.

On that, i would include the PC in this, although developers experience more copyright issues with the pc.
