Not the pattern I expected for third-party sales.

What pattern did you expect?

man the wii is a software selling beast...shames a good chunk of it is shovel ware...but ehhh

Interesting.....very interesting....I wonder how each of the company's PR is going to spin this around....

Nintendo: I told you third-party games sell!!!! But nooooo you wouldn't listen.....

Microsoft: First-party game sales are okay....but look at third-party sales!!!! It's massive!!!

Sony: ...................   .................. .................... whatever.............

Sony: We provide a core synergy to leverage our specialist markets and provide value-added service in a competitive, dynamic environment while remaining customer-centric.

Translation: We have low sales.

Hahaha, man, best comment I've read all day! :p

Isn't there 2x or 3x as many (or more) third party games released on Wii per month as there is on 360? Also how many of those sales were for Mario and Sonic, a game that should be considered second party?  Also do those numbers include pack-ins?  And I guess a $10 budget game included with a controller = $50-$60 retail game, right?

Does this include Wii sports, Wii play and links crossbow? If so...yeah, I know how to spin this article.

@disolitude, If the sony numbers were increased by the same amount as Wii sports, Wii play and links crossbow training they would still be last by a significant margin. Spin away.

I'd understand to exclude Wi Sports (people are unwilling to exclude 360 and ps3 bundles however...) but Link's Crossbow training?!?

Man, some people are willing to go deep...
