You mean a million and a half from now which at this rate will take less than 2 months?

Actually the craziest part of this is the fact that the Wii should settle close to 500k for the week and PS360 close to 275/280k for the week. If HD sales drop and Wii sales go up just a bit Wii could not only outsell HD sales combined it could do so twice over!

 

Please remind me,why are people still buying a wii again? Software>>Hardware. Is the wii some kind of new age toy??

Because unlike the other consoles, the Wii appeals to casual gamers, as well as Nintendo loyalists.

Also, most of its great games are the best of this generation, and are quite exclusive to the console, forever.

Not to mention its great price point.

...and motion controls.

Did I mention it has the highest rated Mario game ever?

I'm sure VC sold a few units, too.

Also, the Wii's poor library myth is greatly exxagerated.

Oh yeah, and a lot of Wii owners think the Wii is the best console this gen, due to the fact that it actually improved on more fronts than graphics and online gaming, which are relatively unimportant to many people.

It also launched with a game called Wii Sports, which is the defining game of this generation.

Word of mouth is also fantastic for the Wii.

Also, the Wii is a public gaming console, not only for single people to set in a room and play alone.

 

The real question is how could anyone who knows anything about marketing not expect Nintendo to blow the pants off all the traditional competition, with its new univerally appealing console, that took the world by storm.

Maybe your hatred of the Wii has blinded you to all but the fact that the Wii doesn't appeal to you.

However, for some reason, the 360 doesn't appeal to you either does it, even though it is clearly the superior console on all fronts except reliability.

It seems that all your talk is aimed at furthering the PS3 agenda. I know you were warned not to follow Wii posts around and troll them. So, I suggest you take that warning seriously.
