Other thread?

I just came online to VGChartz, I haven't been around much... saw that the Wii numbers were still close to 200k per week despite the bad economy. I wanted to know how long it took the Wii to sell a million console on average.

When I did the math and found it averaged every three weeks, I was shocked so I started a thread to see what people thought.

So, it's in no way a reaction to the thread where they announced that the Slim sold >1 million in three weeks?

Just going to drop in every couple days, hrmm Steven? Not consider my feelings?!!

Yeah, the Wii is amazing though.

I'm sorry Montana, law school's been eating up all my time.  Oddly enough, most of my spare time is actually split even between PS3 and Wii now (Muramasa and TMNT Turtles in Time and a little B-Game called Viking that is hillariously bad).

Well, your law school is a fat *****. Tell her to put down the fork a second and let you spend some time on Vgchartz. It's great that you still have time for videogames though.

And since it's not just a conversation, great thread. I especially liked the part where you used statistics.

@Rafichamp:


Actually for 2009 the Wii sold 10 million so far.

10/38 = .263 million

So for 2009 Wii's been selling a 789k every three weeks without a holiday season...

For the past 52 weeks...

21/52= .404 million

That's 1.212 Million every three weeks.

 

EDIT:!!!!!

Outlawrun:

What's a "Slim?"

Oh the PS3 Slim.  No I don't own one. I own the PS3Phat. 80 GB.  I used to own a 20GB back in the day but I traded it in and skipped a year of PS3.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

LOL, I miss making my number crunching threads.  I used to make some really complex threads... :(

Law school definitely is a fat *****.  I like it though, keeps me busy.

You just Kanye'd the other thread.

LMAO, that was exactly my thoughts when I read the thread title!

Saw "PS3 sells 1 million in 3 week!", and then directly below it "Wii sells 1 million every three weeks!", and I nearly sh!t myself haha!

I think this is the first time in history a thread title has successfully trolled and flamed another thread title in one fell'd swoop!.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

I actually just meant it to be funny amd to make a point.  I own all three consoles.  The 360 is still in the box (not the console's fault, I just haven't gotten around to it yet - want to download Shadow Complex but I don't have a HDD for it), the PS3 is great for bluray but it still lacks games I like (Waiting for FFXIII).  The Wii just has the games I play now, Wii Sports Resort, Beatles Rock Band (I already own Wii instruments and which console doesn't really matter) and Muramasa - along with VC games and WiiWare...

It's funny, 2 years ago I was anti-OD, now most of my game time is with games purchase through OD.
