I've bought about 13 VC titles already.

Let's say half of wii owners have internet connection and on average they downloaded 2 VC titles.

so 3.3 mill x 2 = 6.6 million VC bought since launch.

that'd be my guess for now. i wouldn't be surprised if it's more....alot more. 


Well, I agree with you. I consider myself to be a stingy Virtual Consoler. I have only downloaded two games thus far. Streets of Rage and Galaga! And if I'm stingy it has to be much higher for the normal owner hooked up to the internet. I say at least 6 million probably more like 7.5.

If you're stingy, I must be a miser.  I've yet to purchase a VC game, yet I have 7 Wii titles.  I don't think VC sales are that high (good, but not very high) because I see VC purchases more as nostalgia things for games you liked or missed out when you were younger.  I pretty much ignored the VG scene as a kid because I couldn't afford it (lived on $5 / week in NY), so I don't really have attachment to the VC titles except as a curiosity. The only time I visited the store was to DL the browser
