Nintendo Wii sets software sales record
Nintendo of America’s VP of sales and marketing Cammie Dunaway has announced that the Wii has already sold over 50 million units of software since its launch (18 months ago) and that the figure is a new record.
The previous record, 42 million units sold in 18 months, was from the launch of the PlayStation 2 in late 2000.
As a comparison, in the first 18 months of their lifecycles ,the Xbox 360 had 30 million units sold, 20 million were sold for the PlayStation 3 and 28 million were sold for the original Xbox.
Making the figure even more impressive is that the figure does not include WiiSports which is bundled in every Wii console sold. The figure does however include “WiiPlay” (which comes bundled with a Wii remote) and “Link’s Crossbow Training” (which comes bundled with the Wii zapper.)
