25 million in 18 months. Incredible.

That's 1.38 per month and they are about to up it to 2.4 million per month. The next 25 million will be even faster.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

The Wii passed the 25 Million mark by about 30 weeks faster than the PS2! AMAZING!

How much faster did it reach it than the 2nd fastest console to reach that milestone?

http://vgchartz.com/hwlaunch.php?cons1=Wii&reg1=All&cons2=PS2&reg2=All&cons3=DS&reg3=All&weeks=110

About 20 weeks faster than the DS and about 30 weeks faster than the PS2.


Yet this graph says that the PS2 is selling at the same rate as the PS3.

Still, quite a nice accomplishment for the Wii. The thing is a freak of nature.

I hope that was sarcasm.  I suspect every moderator here knows the falacy with thsi chart by now.   Just in case you don't, the launches are staggered making this chart useless.  Do the same compairosn but use individual territories and you'll see what I mean.   PS3 up until just 2 months ago was charting almost equal with GC, not PS2.

25 million woot woot! Pookie, get the champagne! We gon' ball out!



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Anyone still doubt that it will sell 100 million.




Nintendo still doomed?

Keep in mind, for the first 34 weeks, the PS2 was only available in Japan..

 Thats exactly what Montana was pointing out. Rol used the charts to say the Wii got to 25M 30 weeks before the PS2. But the PS2 launch was staggered, unlike the Wii which was released in the big three regions all within a month. 

It is difficult to tell which reached 25M first between the Wii and PS2.
