Title: Wii Sales figures?
Post by: UncleBob on November 19, 2006, 08:43:38 AM: http://nexgenwars.com/

I wonder where they get these supposed numbers from?

And does it only include US sales for the big three or JPN/EU/AU as well?

I say bs, for now.

Has the wii/ps3 even been launched internationaly yet? I have a feeling ps3 won't bee #1 this time around think they shot themselves in the foot with high price tag. It will be interesting in about six months to see those numbers.

If thats true and Sony can only supply 1/4 of the launch total for a weekly restock, then Sony will onlu have another 240,000 or so PS3's b4 the end of the year. Thats barely more than what the supposed launch total was supposed to be.

Post by: WuTangTurtle on November 19, 2006, 11:12:58 AM: apparently not long, the average sell price now for a ps3 is about $1,900.

the Wii #'s were @ 514k+ when I saw tham earlier, now they are above 530k and still climbing.
How many Wii's did Nintendo release @ launch?

Post by: KnowsNothing on November 19, 2006, 12:53:16 PM: I'm guessing around 700-800,000. They SAID 1 million but eh.
Title: RE: Wii Sales figures?
Post by: LuWoo75 on November 19, 2006, 01:15:14 PM: If it is 1 million then someone is sittin on 1/2 million copies and i'd like to know who it is.

Post by: zakkiel on November 19, 2006, 01:47:10 PM: I don't see any problem with believing the 1 million shipment number, in which case Nintendo is currently at 1 million sold, so far as I'm concerned.
