I still surprised. I figured (1) PS3 would win and (2) it wouldn't happen until March. Mario's truly a beast!

Yup I do remember that PS3 was lot closer to 5 mil than wii is to 10 mil, but I remember it sol 200K+ in December with NSMBWii, so it seems mario the plumber has fixed the leak :P

Wii will reach 10m before PS3 reaches 5m. We're probably looking at 30k vs 15k this week in Japan but from next week onwards (with the exception of FFXIII release week) Wii should be ahead on a weekly basis and will therefore sell-through 1.5m quicker, expecially over the holidays where Wii sales should be probably twice PS3 sales.

ioi you were right all the long while Zorro was sure PS3 would win.

ioi you were right all the long while Zorro was sure PS3 would win.

Nevertheless, if Zorro really is Crazzy, he was more accurate and sober than ever before.

About Wii and Mario, I never believed Wii haters and doomsayers, nevertheless I was quite sure PS3 could win this little race, but instead the boost given by NSMBW was so strong to overturn the situation and furtherly better the already good opinion I had on Wii's strength, it could reach 90M WW before this year's end.
