Hate to show my ignorance (more than usual, anyway), but is this a PS3 exclusive? I had not read that previously (that I recall).

I see the Wii sales tanking by the end of the year. Qualification: "Tanking", as used within the context of Wii hardware sales, means no more million units in one month; means down to 250-300k a month. You know, normal-type sales. I do think that 2009 is the last year of the "must getta Wii" mentality and Christmas…
