I would imagine the 432k Wiis sold is the same number that were released to the public. Target had them this past Sunday and all the stores in West Michigan were sold out within a matter of minutes

One of my good friends actually walked up to me all excited this week and said, "Dude, I finally found a Wii!"

I didn't realize they were still hard to find.

PS3 outsells the 360 for second month in a row :P. I was going to make a thread about that but I would have probably been flamed.

Halo 3 holds the record for the highest grossing opening day in entertainment history, bringing in US$170 million in its first 24 hours

ahh thanks #12, would've been my guess too

i wish it would be released here soon

DB'XX'D

you know why? because it is selling at a weak point in game sales. March has nothing going for it, so nintendo played it smart and decided to sell the game 3 months after holiday season knowing it would sell anyways.

the game was finished in january.

I find it so amazing that the ps2 is still outselling the ps3 and the xbox 360 by a really large margin.

"only a fool looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart." - ulysses everett mcgill

the reason ps3 is now selling is because hd dvd lost and blue ray won and the most reasonable blu ray player is a ps3

#9 you really are pathetic, you know that right?
