But the hottest of all the pop culture trends was the Nintendo Wii, which saw a whopping 2.05 million related items including accessories and games sold on eBay, outstripping the Microsoft Xbox 360 (1.29 million items), Apple's new iPod Touch (281,361) and the iPhone 3G (212,837).

 

The data was based on eBay listings that included key words in the listing title across all categories from Jan 1-Oct 15, 2008.

Ebay isn't a realiable source of sales data...

Not a good source for sales information, but a very good source for product demand.

Seeing so many Wii items on ebay obviously means there is a hig hdemand for it.

It was meant to be sarcastic post because anytime someone says PS3 is selling well on Amazon he posts shit like that...  You guys still haven't figured this WiishyJoe out yet?
