E3'09: Reggie Fils-Aime lays down gauntlet to Microsoft and Sony
Nintendo has claimed that third-party publishers will find more success on Wii than Xbox 360 or PS3 this calendar year.
Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime told E3's crowd at the platform holder's conference in Los Angeles this morning that third-party developers were "flowing" to Wii and DS.
He showed off EA's new Tiger Woods game on Wii – which both take advantage of Wii Motion Plus technology – as well as Square Enix's Final Fantasy.
“More third party games were sold for Wii than any other platform last year," said Fils-Aime, "and DS was second. That trend will only grow this year."

What!?
What? As much as the Wii shifts (when I can get stock) and Nintendos games fly off the shelf, third party titles perform so poorly, I hardly order any in. Contrast that with Sony and especially Microsoft, who have third party titles flying off the shelf all the time.
Reggie. I have respect for what you and Nintendo have achieved with the Wii, but please, don't make outlandish comments if you can't back them up.
What!?
Maybe he meant "made" instead of "sold". We have Wii and DS games constantly pushed at us and whilst there are some big sellers most fall by the wayside and are soon discounted.
