This has been a dry season for games and that is reflected in the numbers.
I have a 360 and the family has a wii. I play "regular" games on the 360 like Fallout 3, Far Cry and we all use the Wii almost exclusively for Wii Fit or screwing around on Wii Sports and Wii Play. In my home, at least, the two items are almost different genres. I play the usual games on 360 and PC and Wii is for the stuff that is special to it, like Wii Fit. I am not a Nintendo fan and never played Mario or Zelda so don't even look for those style of games on Wii. But when I speak to the parents of my kids friends, all the talk about Wii is for stuff like Wii Fit and Wii Sports and how novel and fun it is to bowl or do the cow races with the family. There is a lot of understanding about the Wii in adults surrounding the non traditional console applications and I think those driver sales a tremendous amount.
