I walked into a grocery store and saw no orange juice on the shelf, Orange Juice must not be selling because I haven't seen it on the shelf



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

I have looked at some stores here in Spain and cant find the Wii anymore ,there was stock since 10 days ago but now it seems to be sold out.Lots of 360 and PS3 ,though ,but the PS3 piles get depleted quite fast only to be replaced with a pile as big as before.X360 boxes always seems to be the same though with minimal movement.I think PS3 is selling extremely well but is just very well stocked and is only scarce in some stores,the Wii is selling very well as a toy due to the date but hasnt got so much stock ,and the 360 isnt selling at all...some units here and there ,but definitely niche buyers.

@ Neos

At least he his learning. He did say that the Wii is selling really well.

Sorry to break the news, but all three consoles are toys. So why aren't they all selling that well?
