One Million Sold

One million, gamers. One million units for the Nintendo Wii has already been sold. Nintendo's newest phenomenon has swept America (selling 50% of the million) and Japan alike and it doesn't look like it's going to slow any time soon. The Wii is less than three weeks old, but it's already reached the major sales landmark. Kyodo News reports that Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, during a speech given in Tokyo on the 7th, revealed that the system has crossed the one million mark in worldwide sales.

Good news for the big N and great news for the industry in general. I cannot wait to see what happens next year when the system goes online and Mario, Super Smash, Bwii, Super Mario Strikers, Metroid and a ton of other exclusives come out for Nintendo's juggernaut.
