Are seriously going to argue that price is the only factor between the Wii and PS3.  You mean the release of some big software releases in September and October had nothing to do with the PS3 sustaining good sales numbers.  So the other thing about price, is this the first generation of consoles where this price point has been the deciding factor?  Looking back at history, the cheapest console has not always been the most succesful.  So I would suggest thinking out the rational behind your statements before presenting faulty arguments.

yeah they prob do want to do f zero and star foz internally but who would make them? i could see retro doing star fox but im not sure about f zero

Why are people still confused about this, most Wii owners are NOT core gamers. It's as simple as that, and it's also the reason why core games tend to sell bad for Wii.

Also Wii has the lowest 3th party software sales. And alot of those sales are cheap party games as well.

Well I kinda found the nintendo offering pretty good this gen...

Casual/new audience:
Wii fit
Wii sports
Wii sports resort
Wii music
Animal crossing

What i'd consider to be good games also for hardcore gamers:
Zelda Twilight
Super Paper mario
SMG
Metroid Prime 3
Punch out (could be casual.... but really the audience is 8bit Nint fans ^^).
Strikers charged
Mario Kart Wii
Batalion Wars 2
Fire Emblem RD
SSBM

if you really feel lacking regarding nintendo games, there's a problem...

@ anthony

nintendo sells the most third party software

Where are they?

Most of them are in my room. I might play one now, but which one? There are so many. I'm having trouble deciding. Maybe I'll just play that casual snooze fest know as Mario Kart Wii. :p

You're kidding right? Yes Wii software sales are pretty good, but over half of all software sold on Wii is from Nintendo themselves. And again most 3rd party software that does sale are cheap party games, old remakes or down-tuned 360/ps3 versions. Not saying there isn't anything good on Wii, there's more than enough. But as explained before, there are obvious reasons why the number of hardcore games on Wii is lacking.

How dare you play casual stuff like mario kart Wii... it doesn't have the real life graphics Hardcore driving sims have!

then again...

"He says that the conception that Wii third-party developers can't have success is wrong. He did say that Nintendo took things seriously by launching Mario, Zelda, and Virtual Console swiftly. But he says that, last year, more third-party games were sold with Wii than any other platform, and the second-biggest was DS."

Talk quality and caveates all you like but your initial statement that "Wii has the lowest 3th party software sales", is wrong.

This is the funniest thing that I've seen on here in a long time.  Thanks for posting it.
