Nintendo's system reaches 200k in record time.
The Wii is now the fastest selling console in Australia, reaching 200,000 sales just a couple weeks south of the one year anniversary of its release, according to Nintendo Australia. The Australian Wii launch took place in December 2006.
The title of "fastest selling console ever" is a true one, as the Wii has sold at a pace faster than that of any console or handheld, including the Nintendo DS or Xbox 360. Microsoft pushed 100k 360s in seven months to set the previous mark.
The Wii has sold 32,101 units in the past month. It continues as the most successful console in Australia.
