Hmmmm, perhaps you should get some facts before you start confabulating things:
The Wii has sold almost 4,000,000 units since its launch on November 19, 2006. Thats near half of the 8.5 million Xbox 360s that have sold since its launch in late 2005. The PS3 is sitting around 1.2-1.3 million units sold.
So looking at that I'd say its sitting at a good 2nd place, and catching up with the XBOX 360.
Now don't get me wrong I like the XBox 360, so much so that I plan on purchasing one later this year, however, before you knock the Wii, perhaps you should try it. Call of Duty 3 for example, while it has better graphics on the PS3, just is not as fun with the traditional controller; pointing and shooting with the Wiimote feels more comfortable than the mouse and keyboard system on the PC.
I've actually played the PS3 on a High Def screen, and though some of its games have pretty graphics, the games are just the same old rehash with the same control scheme, just better graphics, and therefore IMO is not worth the $500 or $600 pricetag.
