Wii will top 100M any time soon then,

Yup.

Quite an impressive number for the succesor to a console that sold 22m lifetime.


Indeed.Now that was a comeback!

On the other hand, it makes it even more painful to see its successor performing worse than the Cube and the very expensive $599 PS3.

That tends to happen when you launch a console without system-selling software and let it fall into a draught immediately following launch.


I guess they truly believed a new NSMB game (that´s way too similar to the others) would be enough to get people to fork over the $$$.

It boggles the mind they let the Wii die prematurely (it was practically abandoned as soon as 2010 was over) and still couldn´t get at least Pikmin 3 out for the launch window period.I figured this time there would be no drought, especially taking into account the Wii´s premature death, but I guess you were right that a lot probably has to do with the 3DS.
