Okay, first point: The DS has nothing to do with anything here. The DS is not the Wii. It's not in the same market (handhelds v consoles), and its presence on the charts doesn't mean much in terms of console game sales.
Point the second: Individual titles sell well. That doesn't really mean much. In fact, with software attach rates being what they are, it just reaffirms that Nintendo owners are buying only a couple of major titles, and nothing more. Hell, they're factoring in pack-in titles to pad Wii's attach rate.
High console sales are good. Strong console sales and a strong attach rate are better.

MS really has to swallow their pride and go Blu-Ray, people don't want to be juggling DVDs when they play games. Never mind the fact that people aren't always in a position to download their online content, e.g. Here in NZ where we pay out the arse for capped broadband.
MS also needs a new racing title.

BD isn't needed. Programmers are lazy.
Next gen, MS will likely include a BD player.
