Thats the flip side to catering to the casuals.THEY DONT REALLY PLAY GAMES.Wiis are in places like hospitals and stuff.Obese people around the world are using them once a day or so only to workout.They dont care about Madworld.48 million Wiis and cant sell any software without Mario in it.Shame.

 Even more interesting is the point that the 360 is reported to having a 8 million lead in the Americas against the PS3. And with the recent PSN active accounts eclipsing Live active accounts, someone has been fudging the M$ numbers for some time.

That would be 7.1 usage days during the month of December that this survey was conducted. :)

Since Twilight Princess I dipped into RE4 (expected better graphics upgrade for 2x Gamecube, anti-aliasing at least?), Super Mario Galaxy (better than Sunshine but still nothing on SM64) and nothing else really grabs me as superb. So those are my Wii games along with Wii Sports which I think is a complete turd.

The WII is a casual gaming console.  Which means that play casually.  Like one twice a week, if that.

I am almost over the whole 360 v PS3.  I have a PS3 and I love it.  I does what I need from a console and it has games which I consider great and love to play.

Over the last year I have been using my PS3 ALOT (90%) more than my 360.

#5 is right. You have the numbers wrong. According to the PDF linked to here the 360 is at 11.4% active user sessions. The only one in which the PS3 is over the 360 is in the Daily avg sessions.

 Weird, I saw a chart the other day on Ars stating that PS3 gets the least amount of playtime out of all the systems, including Gamecube. And has been for the past year.

I think its funny that planet 360 has different results. I personally love the PS3, way more then the 360 can do and not as costly!

Below is a chart from the report showing the trends mentioned above:
