And where did those figures come from?

Norway is around 125k for the Wii, but Norway has the lowest population of the 4 major Scandanavian countries.... it is in between 1/5th and 1/6th in terms of population, but I would have thought Denmark and Sweden also buy more consoles per person too. (especially given the early supply issues are sorted out in the larger countries first

I know it isn't an accurate way to do it, but it seems odd that the whole of Scandanavia has sold fewer than 5-6 times that of Norway (625-750k).

Even worse for the DS... which is roughly 260k in Norway, but for some reason according to you, not even 4X that for the whole of Scandanavia?

I would rather wait for BKK2 to give figures, because I think you may have missed out 1 of the Scandanavian countries with those figures.

yes, you are right. Finland isn't included, but that country is one of the few that is still not Nintendo-friendly as the Wii is in last place and the DS is not selling that well too. But with Finland the figures should be a bit higher, maybe 1,1 million for the DS and 600k for the Wii. The figures above btw are from Bergsala, the distributor of Nintendo Systems over there.

 

Ah, ok. But there is more than just 1 distributor for Scandanavia.... so is this distibutor estimating the sales of the others?
