This was expected. Nothing extraordinary here. All these growths should be expected.

Wii saw the smallest growth of all the machines.

 

Differences:

DS + 240K (34%)

Wii: + 250K (+ 33%)

X360: + 150K ( + 38%)

Ps3: + 60K (33%)

PsP:  + 80K ( + 37%)

 

PS: Wiistation60, you have the wrong numbers for X360.

 

fanboy much?

according to your numbers there wii wold 250k more than last week, excuse my math skills but isnt that a bigger growth than everything else(especially the closest competition whish only grew over last week as much as150k)?

 

What kind of fanboy am I? I'd love to be enlightened about it.

You can't just look at direct growths in units. A console selling 500,000 would (almost) always see a bigger growth during christmas than a console selling 50,000 units.

A relative (in %) growth is relatively fair. One should expect ~ 30-35% in growth for christmas. Thus, the Wii increase was expected, and shouldn't be as shocking as people believe.

 

I think people are shocked that Nintendo was able to supply 1M Wiis in a week in NA, more that the fact that it could sell 1M units.
