Just wanted to get this out there, but then again it isn't particularly surprising, although I am skeptical about purchasing a Wii. Is there something wrong with mii if that's the case with me and wii?

I want to get the Wii, but every time, I play it at the kiosks, I get slightly turned off from it. Maybe because the only game available is Excite Truck. And the Wiimote is a little too sensitive for my taste.

Initial higher console sales not a winner make.

Wii has not rocked anything.

According to the article, the X-Box 360 outsold both systems, and it's been out for over a year now.

Well it is a lot easier to buy a 360 than a PS3 or Wii right now. And the fact that Gears of War is selling-uberly is also helping. And to be honest, a $400 console selling at half a million? That's not bad. That's not bad at all.

None of these numbers are anything to scoff at,at all. It's a very good sign when all three next gen systems(especialy two that are not even a month old) sold that many units within that ammount of time.

Exactly. This is good for, not only their respective companies, but the industry as a whole.

Also, the DS really does print money. ;P

Yup. That's all that needs to be said on this topic.

We don't need threads concerning every Wii or PS3 sales figure. Nothings accurate at this point.
