Oh, Canada.

Canada.com has posted an article on the Wii’s continuing success, and seems to be based off of the information from last week’s Media Summit. Excerpt and link below.

At the November 2006 launch of the Wii in Toronto, Bertram anticipated good things for the console and hoped for “a strong second place” showing. The actual success is beyond anyone’s expectations. In less than five months since introduction, the company has sold six million Wii systems globally and nearly 29 million Wii games. The console has taken a step toward becoming a cultural phenomenon.Â
