I sure cant find very many multiplayer games for the X360 or PS3 unless it's a sports game. Could that be the reason the wii is winning?

Good thing the vast majority of console buyers prefer local multiplayer over online.

Online gaming isn't that popular yet. Good marketing bullet point, but not very significant in the big picture.

No offense, but who cares?  Its important to me, and thats who the OP asked.  In my humble opinion, Wii will never come close to the multiplayer options that the 360 or PC can offer me.

I thought it was plainly clear that the OP was talking about local multiplayer from the very beginning, since he singled out "sports games" but didn't mention RFOM or Gears or whatnot.

Well if that's indeed what he wanted to talk about, then I took his post the wrong way and my comment is pretty much moot. But if I were to simply share my feelings on the topic of multiplayer in general, that's what I would say. :)

so far so good.

me and my roomies have gone through geow, graw, cod2, madden, burnout and even Uno. Those were fun for a lil bit.
6 months later and we are still getting excited when our friend come over to play wii sports tennis.

This is how it usually goes, 20 mins of guitar hero, 20 mins of cod 2, then like 2 hours of wii sports. 

Wii is the best. Don't even get me started on Red Steel (its like 19.99 now, its worth it for the 4player multi)
