Wii surpasses 7 million sales mark in Japan
According to the latest sales data from Enterbrain, the Wii has sold 7,024,239 units from its December 2, 2006 launch through this past Sunday, November 23, 2008. Bumping it over the hill was mostly the work of Animal Crossing: City Folk, moving 303,204 copies itself this past week. Other data figures include a total of 24,127,175 Nintendo DS units (including the DS Lite and DSi) since the unit’s December 2004 launch, and 276,049 copies of Crono Trigger sold in the week ending November 23rd.
What does all that mean? It means that Nintendo will continue swimming in money for the forseeable future, and that we can almost bet on City Folk 2 in the Wii’s lifetime. Or maybe just Nintendogs-like promotion on the first City Folk for the next several years. Yeah, that’s it.
