Shane said: N64 was one of the fastest selling consoles. To which I believe the response is: so? If it's still going like this in 6 months, I'll be impressed. Not ready to hand the torch over to Nintendo but impressed nonetheless.
Actually, if you look at the 6 month and 1 year data the N64 did not sell all that quickly ... From another thread

The Wii is sitting at 1,918,250 consoles sold with 10 weeks before the 26 week mark, and is sitting at 2,107,500 in North America with 2 months to go before the 6 month mark; this means that its sales will be somewhere between the PS2 and Gameboy Advance when it hits its 26 week/6 month milestone.
