Fils-Aime: Wii will surpass Xbox 360 in total U.S. sales by June

If Reggie Fils-Aime is going to be asked, he’d tell you that the Nintendo Wii is in a good position now to overtake Microsoft’s Xbox 360 in total sales in U.S. this coming June.

The statement came out in a recent Bloomberg article about stocks and the feared U.S. economic slowdown. Know more after the jump!

The online website of financial and data company Bloomberg is currently running an article about the upward trend of stocks in Asia and Europe.

Companies mentioned include Nestle, Vedanta, and Nintendo. According to the article, these stock rise in other major areas will counter the much feared U.S. economic slowdown.

Regarding the video game industry on competition and its place in these matters, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime had this to say:

Nintendo, which counts the Americas as its biggest market, advanced 4.1 percent to 53,300 yen, the highest since January 23.

The Wii will surpass the Xbox 360 in total U.S. sales by June, helped by video-game titles including Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Well, those are pretty strong words from the outspoken Nintendo official. Microsoft, on the other hand, has been doing a lot of tricks to stay competitive like offering price cuts to some territories.
