Another Wii would be a disappointment? What?!? Did you actually say that? lol!! Sony wishes they had Wii's numbers. Microsoft is satisfied with their numbers because 1) They surpassed the might Sony Playstation. 2) They completely outsold the original XBox by a large margin (even doubling Japan sales). 3) They are completely out of debt that the original XBox got them in.
As for DS numbers. I think the U.S. sales alone will stay above 200K for the rest of the year, as long as Nintendo keep bringing out 'must buy' exclusive titles. With Zelda, StarFox, Kid Icarus.

1) MS intention was never to be second. Second is the first of the losers according to some MS spokesperson I can't recall.
They wanted to be first and could have been if not for the unexpected success of the wii. Saying that MS is happy with beating Sony is like saying a swimmer is contented to finish the olympic final in seventh place, happy because the former champ finished eighth.
3) The x360 has been succesful but to wipe out $4b (or whatever) in debt and at the same time cover it's own R&D, current advertising, promotions and other current operations cost that runs into hundreds of millions a year obviously means that the x360 has so far made $??bn profit so far. Look at the figures man. There are there to look at.
You also think the US alone will stay above 200K DS for the rest of the year. I would say this is most likely WW. During the holidays I think some major records will be broken with the 3DS though.
But let's see. That's the beauty of time, you can just wait and see.

I think he meant 3DS when he mentioned zelda, starfox and kid icarus.
