When Perrin said she wasn't going to take a jab at Sony, I'm sure it was because Nintendo told her not to. I bet she's just dying to flaunt the Wii sales and that's why she kinda slipped up by saying people are selling PS3s on Ebay to buy a Wii. Although you could also look at it as a true statement rather than a jab. I like Perrin's interviews. She really puts forth the image of Nintendo as a very fan friendly humble company. I don't think saying that you are in awe of your product's sales is a bad thing. I smiled when I read that part of the interview because I thought it was such a "thank you" to the fans.
Edit:
I just found this on Gonintendo (originally from GamePolitics):
GamePolitics talked to Beth Llewelyn, Sr. Director of Corporate Communications at Nintendo concerning their feelings about Manhunt 2 for the Wii.
"Manhunt 2 is not developed or published by Nintendo. It is one of many titles released by third party publishers for our system that appeal to people of all ages and interests. Just as with movies, television, and books, different video games appeal to - and are appropriate for - different audiences. Video game retailers and purchasers are strongly encouraged to follow the age-specific ESRB ratings when considering what software to sell or buy. If parents are concerned about kids having access to inappropriate Wii games, we encourage them to utilize the PIN-operated Parental Control features built into Wii"
Sounds similar to what Perrin was saying but in a little more detail.

I can't believe that Mastodon didn't win best metal song. I was pulling for Tool in the hard rock catagory but I'm happy Wolfmother won.
