now now Statikk, it's called the wii, get used to it.
and as long as were talking Console stats, the GameCube is outselling the Xbox 360 in Japan.

The reason Sony has out done Nintendo all this time is because, out of similar gameplay (hold controller with 2 hands, press buttons) it had better ways to push those buttons.
Since the Wii has drastically different gameplay, it's kinda hard to compare the two. But over all, Game-play and price, I predict it'l be a good 5-6 years for Nintendo. With franchises like Splinter Cell, and everything else Ubisoft can dish out. And Nintendo originals like Brawl, Super Mario, Zelda, Metroid, and Excite Truck, well, I'd like to see PS3 do the same with Jak and Rachet (Rachet has been confirmed). But to actually compare the two as which one is better, it's like trying to compare...water and oil. They don't mix well.
But in overall sales. With stuff like that, PS3 will be lucky if they ship out on the day they planned. It's already been delayed in Europe till March. and sony has revealed that the number of units hitting US and Japan at launch has been slashed by 75% from initial figures. which means that we can currently expect that around 400,000 PlayStation 3s will be available for the console's US launch on November 17 while approximately 100,000 units will ship on the Japanese launch day of November 11. *bomb falling noise, followed by boom*
So not only will you be the first in your town to own one, you'll be the only one too.
