Whether you like the Wii or not, it seems nothing is going to slow down sales for Nintendo.
At the current rate of sales, Nintendo will end up selling 20 million units at a rate of 1.54 million units per month and reach the 20 million milestone 6 months faster than the Sony PS2 did.
The interesting fact is that Microsoft may actually be outperforming the Nintendo Wii outside of Japan.
Less than 4% of Xbox 360 sales come from inside Japan and this could be the single aspect that gives Nintendo the world-wide edge.
The Sony PS3 is still way behind both Nintendo and Microsoft, but 2008 will be a long year.
I have always felt that 2008 will be the year for Sony, so we’ll just have to see.
