Fils-Aime: We sold 5 million Wiis already this year
We know how the Wii’s still continuing to rake in serious cash for Nintendo, but really, we had no idea they’ve already moved five million units this year alone! It’s only the beginning of May, people. That puts the math at 1.25 million units sold per month since January 2010.
We know how the Wii’s still continuing to rake in serious cash for Nintendo, but really, we had no idea they’ve already moved five million units this year alone! It’s only the beginning of May, people. That puts the math at 1.25 million units sold per month since January 2010.
This detail was confidently shared by Nintendo of America’s Reggie Fils-Aime in a chat with CNBC. According to him, this amount is actually “the entire amount that our competitors have sold over the previous 12 months.”
Not only that, but he also boasted of how they have successfully gotten almost a million Wii to subscribe to Netflix, since the launch of the service back in March.
Is Reggie bluffing with the numbers? We’ll find out soon enough as NPD’s April results should be out soon.
