Another reason the Wii is selling is the VC games. I don't know if it represents a significant fraction of the owner base or not. All I have is anecdotal evidence, i.e., I know a couple people who are retro-freaks and play a lot of what they call "The retro console."
I don't recall seeing any figures on VC sales and I would suppose that info would have to come from Nintendo. If any one has any info I would be very interested in seeing it. I do find it amusing that I see threads all over the place hyping ten and twenty year old games that are being given a new life on the Wii.
My niece has a Wii and her games are Wii Sports (loves it, her friends come over and play all the time), Elebits (she played it for a few days), and... Paper Mario, Super Mario Bros. and the SNES Mario. Her parents play Wii Sports and they are planning on getting Wii Music and Wii Fit. That's not proof of anything but it is a fair example of the type of situation Nintendo claims they are aiming for.
