Holy smokes PS3 ahead of Wii. Nice! Hopefully this is the start of a trend.

PS3 just had Move released, Wii had nothing compelling. If PS3 WASN'T in front of Wii, it would be in trouble..

Whose fault is it the Wii had nothing? Wasn't mine, wasn't Sony's...it was Nintendo's. Now that PS3 has motion controlls too the Wii has nothing to offer unless you prefer Nintendo's core games.
I didn't bring it up, you did.

Maybe nothing to offer for you, but for me it has far more games that interest me than the PS3, motion controls or not. But whatever, to each his own..
I'm simply saying take a look at the curcumstances. PS3 is really in the worse position IMO because they just had a major addon released in which they poured a great deal of effort and resources into, and still it barely beat the Wii on a week that the Wii had squat.
If you wanna get technical, it wasn't Nintendo's fault as much as the third parties, which have left Wii out in the cold. The Wii lineup this year actually has been pretty solid for the core gamer. The problem is that by Nintendo shifting back completely to the core gamer this year is they have stopped making games for the expanded audience (except for Wii Party), which has resulted in lower sales. But this holiday they seem to have more of that nice balance of core, casual, and bridge titles, which is why I think they are in for a bigger holiday season then most people anticipate.
