Nintendo have decimated the competition when it comes to December’s NPD figures with the company shifting a massive 3.81 million Wii units and 3.31 million DS units to consumers.
“Wii, Nintendo DS Lite and Nintendo DSi combined to sell more than 7 million units in the month of December alone. Clearly there is overwhelming consumer demand for fun games, motion controls and value.
“This remarkable hardware sales surge presents a tremendous software opportunity for Nintendo and its third-party partners for 2010.”
– Nintendo VP Cammie Dunaway
This is awesome! I wonder how well the new Console with HD graphics will sell when it comes out?
better than corn!
Wow that’s good thjat the wii still sell like crazy, perfect time around the holidays
represent! =D
Too bad my Wii is just an expensive blue pulsing night light.
Mine is never showing the blue light. :(
No Internet connection?
Also the attach rate for the Wii isn’t that great. Sure consoles are selling but I own maybe 10 Wii games while I have easily over 50 for my Xbox.
Wii needs to focus on online multiplayer if it wants to survive in the future. Mario Kart is fun but I can’t play Dragon Age or FFXIII on it. That’s a HUGE problem for me.
Ok, yay for Nintendo and all but —> “Clearly there is overwhelming consumer demand for fun games, motion controls and value.” <— NO! THERE WILL NOT BE A DEMAND FOR MOTION CONTROL IN THE NEXT GEN! I am already sick of it! The next portable will be RUINED if it focuses on motion control. Same for the console. I didn't say drop it, just don't focus on it.
