In that article, they also state that the Wii had more than twice as many titles ship as either the 360 or the PS3 during the same period (first 8 or 9 months) during the same time period. Guess that Nintendo-lull ain't as bad as it used to be.

We're talking about quantity, not quality. It's been an anti-Nintendo point since the SNES days

Mature games generally take longer to make, because they is more focus on realism, story, and graphics. They are mature because reality is mature, not E-rated.

Just apply the same logic to movies. How many of your favorite movies were PG? How many were R?

The article doesn't examine the data very well. Most M-rated games have a much higher budget. They sell better on average to non-M rated titles, but there are also a lot fewer budget titles (if any) targeting below 75K sales.

If you look at the top selling titles in North America for this year so far, they are not M-rated: Pokemon games, Wii Play, Madden, and Mario Party; these titles have all sold in the millions whereas the highest selling M-rated title is Bioshock which is just over half a million. Though the lowest selling titles like World of Mana, Carnaval Games, the latest Dynasty Warrior spin off, those are plentiful, and also non-M rated.
