Only die hard Nintendo fanboys boy the Wii, and so do non-gamers like the aforementioned parents, and old people.
The real gamers console (360) appeals to real gamers who want to play real games on and offline. Once the novelty of the Wii has worn off, and people realize that stupid controller is just a pointless gimmick the system will die as nothing it has in its games library can even hold a candle to other titles coming and already out on other systems.
Gamers might have a Wii, but i will give you 50 quid if you can find me a true, hardcore gamer who uses their Wii as their primary console, as the VAST majority only use it as a secondary console at best.
The 360 is still the most played and has the best games thanks to its flawless online play. Not to mention its HD capabilities and movie playback and what not, stuff the Wii doesnt have.
Oh and lets not forget Halo 3.

No, LET'S forget Halo 3. In fact, let's forget the 360 in general. Let's forget the console that crashes every time you try to play "the best games".
And you owe me 50 quid bud. I can't believe you can look at Wii sales and reviews and think that no one would buy it as a primary console. And how could you suggest that it isn't a gamer's console? You think it is just for little kids and old men? Play Twilight Princess and then let's see what you think. Sure, The Wii has plenty of games for non-gamers and young children, but there are plenty of games for "real gamers" too and not Just Nintendo fanboys. You act like you think it's a bad thing that the Wii can be played by everyone in contrast to your precious 360 which can only be played by people with the patience to deal with frequent crashes red lights of doom.
Don't even think about calling me a Nintendo fanboy because I defend Nintendo and its Wii. I'm a SEGA fan and I like the Wii, as a PRIMARY console. And yes, I am a "true gamer."

Now, if you HADN'T made this post, I wouldn't have to start he Fanboy argument up again.
EDIT: And, to include actual numbers (Rather than assumptions), 360 is only above the Wii by LESS than 1 million units. Meaning Wii has sold faster in one year than 360 has sold in two.
Also, the PS3 and Wii are both outselling the 360 in Japan.

In Japan, Wii has outsold both both PS3 and 360. To be perfectly honest, 360 has sold LESS than a half a million units in Japan.

Yep, Sonray you owe me 50 quid too. I'll take it in the form of a THS Convoy
Wii is my primary console. I love the games on it. The only thing stopping me from buying more is my financial situation.
I may get a 360, but that'll only be to play Bioshock and Halo 3. I don't have an interest in any of those other games out on it.
And I hate the 360 online function.
I am soooo tired of 7 year olds on Halo online, claiming to be 43 and calling me 'a hacking bastard'. Go **** yourselves kids!
