This war is not over yet, it all depends how each company plan out their strategy.
even though MS and SONY lost one major system seller this fall, imagine if MS or Sony able to drop the price to a better point, it can boost units sale considerably. IF ms drop $100 on their premium package, that can pretty much seal the deal for everyone on this holiday season.
who would choose Wii($250) over premium xbox360($300) price point???
as for Sony, I dont know if they are able to drop the price of ps3 again in this short amount of time.
We'll have to see how many system Halo 3 able to sell at current price point, then we can make conclusion its the lack of AAA game thats holding back buyers or its the Price point that is scaring buyer away. If Halo Fails to sell a decent amount of systems then we can conclude Price is the biggest factor.

 someone that wants to play Wii Sport or any other Nintendo franchise?

Check this weeks charts, or last weeks charts for that matter.

Look, lets not kid ourselves, the PS3 and 360 have a far better third party lineup coming this fall/winter than the Wii does.

Why we shouldn't count first party titles ? You dont play/get- fun-from them or what ? Or just because the wii have by far the best 1st party lineup?

We are also forgetting Assasins Creed that should appear in november for both the PS3 and the 360 .

Look Carlitos ,the PS3 has for this fall games like

Call of Duty 4
Quake Wars
Uncharted
Unreal 3
Haze
Assasins Creed
Eye of Judgement
Folklore
Ratchet and Clank
Socom Confrontation
Rock Band
Guitar Hero III
Army of Two
Mercenaries 2
Medal of Honor Airborne
Singstar Lives
Blacksite Area 51
Timeshift
Little Big Planet
Stranglehold
NBA2k8
NHL 2K8
Pro Evolution Soccer 08 (that will sell millions of PS3 in Europe over the months )

And thats without counting the games that will arrive some time before as Lair ,Heavenly Sword ,Warhawk ,Colin Mc Rae Dirt or Madden 08 ...

Maybe you think that Mario Galaxy ,Mario Smash Bros and Mario and Sonic are a better lineup that the cited above ,but that only shows you are a fanboy Carlitos .

Both the 360 and the PS3 lineups are far more brilliant than the Wii one .Wii doesnt need to much to sell ,its low price and some casual things as Wii Sports are enough to sell the thing ,but from there to pretending convincing anyone that the Wii effectively has a better lineup is a leap of faith only someone crazed (literally ) by Mario can do .

  It's a lovely line n all, but how the hell is it going to sell consoles? I mean, I follow the video game industry quite alot and intend to buy either a 360 or PS3 in the future,and even I don't have a clue what the hell half of those games. how the hell is the average games buyer going to spend $600 on a system when they probably don't know what any of those games are minus the EA titles and Guitar Hero (which is one Wii / PS2).

   Mario has selling power, Smash Bro's has selling power, Sonic has Selling power, as does alot of other Wii games. Games like Heavenly Sword and Lair are never going to eclipse the sales of even a Mario spin off, and although it might seem unjusified it's how the industry works nowadays.

 The Wii has a better line up in terms of sales potential (I think it's better overall, but that's entirely subjective and not worth debating). The Wii has the most recogniseable franchises, along with a far wider appeal that PS3 and 360 simply don't have. 

   This debate is pointless and really going no where (as is the way with vgchartz) but I shall leave my input with this. Just consider that one third of console owners are female, and the only console that has any appeal to that demographic is the Wii (My Sims, Animal Crossing, WarioWare, Boogie, all the Petz games etc). How can the Ps3 and 360 compete from a sales perspective, when the Wii has a huge proportion of the industry all to itself (please don't forget the female market is just one demographic the Wii has all to itself, while 360 and Ps3 simply can't try to obtain).

 -edit-
Whoops, nevermind, didn't see the fall/winter part.  I know most of those are fall/winter, just not sure about all of them.

Isn't it about who has the best games? Say there is 500 games coming out for the PS3 this X-mas but 495 of them are all horrible games that no one would be caught dead buying. I don't care how many games a system has if most of them suck.

Bet with OriGin: Within 1 year Super Smash Bros. Brawl will be ahead of Mario Kart Wii (when aligning the one whole year from each region). 2 week ban from Vgchartz for the loser. Edit: Darn! Looks like OriGin will win.
