Wow, *never* seen any France gaming charts before. Very cool :) Numbers are fairly low (what is the population of France again?) - about a week of sales from Japan. Looks like Nintendo owns France as well at the moment ;)

France has a population of about 60 million (https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/print/fr.html). IIRC Nintendo has always been stronger in France and Germany than the UK.

Yup, I remember hearing some strong sales figures for Germany as well (Nintendogs & the DS doing really well there). Japan has a pop slightly more than double France's (127mill at the moment), and about 4x the monthly sales. All makes sense I suppose.

Bye the way, I'm french and I live near Paris, and you know what ? I know 2 videogames retailers that they are almost 300 reservations for Wii, at this time.... How is it possible ? Is Nintendo "sacrifiying" europpean market in order to sell more Wiis in USA ?

I don't read German, but I think this says that Amazon.de has in-stock Wiis. Why don't you guys import? Same model/price right?

Pretty much..a real pity as the could sell out here no problem (speaking from Ireland).

I doubt it...I'm in the USA and despite many visits to stores that sell them I've yet to even see a single Wii in stock (have seen PS3s though). They certainly aren't readily available here yet.

Really? I thought demand for Wii was going to be catered for.....especially for the NA region. Nintendo must be pleased demand is so high...Christmas was crazy here. I also find it amazing that the PS3 is availdible....clearly not what Sony are looking for.
