Nintendo Wii: #1 Console in UK
In continuing the Nintendo “World Conquest” tour, the Nintendo Wii has surpassed the Xbox 360 as the numero uno console in the UK, according to MCV. In only a year on the market the Wii has been able to surpass the Xbox 360 in total number of sales, selling over 100,000 units last week alone. The Wii-exclusive Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games is currently the best selling game in the UK.
This isn’t the only bit of good news from England for Nintendo, however. The Nintendo DS leaped over the PlayStation 2, setting a single-week sales record of 212,584. This actually surpasses its own record of just over 191K, set three weeks ago.
What a mysterious thing, huh? Over 100,000 units sold in a week, and yet you can’t find one.
