Nintendo also released the following information today:
NPD reports that Nintendo has now sold over two million units of Nintendo’s Wii™ system in Canada. Wii is the first system of the current generation to reach this sales volume and now joins the Nintendo DS™ portable handheld system above the two million units sold mark (both stats are reflective of Canadian NPD data).
The Wii system celebrated its third birthday on November 19, 2009, and the upcoming holiday season will be the fourth consecutive season that Wii will be one of the hottest must have items for holiday shoppers.
“Nintendo’s Wii is the fastest console NPD has ever tracked in Canada to hit the two million unit mark,” said NPD Canada’s Matthew Tattle, “which has provided Nintendo and 3rd party publishers a huge user base to target.”
