The Nintendo Wii is the fastest-selling games console in Australian history, snatching the title from Microsoft’s Xbox 360.
In the first four days since its launch last Thursday, 32,901 Wii units were sold nationwide, said Daniel Morse, games analyst at GfK.
This compared with the previous record of 30,421 Xbox 360s sold in the four days after its launch in March, he said.
Australian electronics retailers are enamoured of the Wii’s initial success. Neil Merola, business manager for Myer’s electronics division, described the result as "outstanding".
And a little more affordable I imagine?
well there is the fact that they are availble this time. 360′s werent.
