No, Wii did well in 2010, selling over 17 million units.

Hmh. Did it happen to have explosive Holidays but a disappointing run during the year? I recall that was when the PS3 started doing better in the charts.

Weekly sales for the Wii in 2010 started very strong, but went down a lot between April and September. In Winter, the Wii was selling about 300k per week, but by September, that dropped to only half of that anymore. Strong holiday sales made that the end numbers still looked quite good, but it was foreshadowing over what was about to happen saleswise in the next years.
