Wii passes 6 million mark in Japan

According to this DarkZero story – via Mainichi – Wii has now sold more than 6 million units in Japan.

The console has been on sale since November 2006. This apparently means the machine has now passed the 25 million point worldwide. Don’t blame us if it doesn’t.

They’re certainly showing MS and Sony how to make a gaming business profitable.

Yes, who’d have ever guessed that flogging clapped-out last-gen kit to non-gaming grannies would be a sure-fire recipe for success? :-D

And who’d have guessed there’s still so much original fun in gaming, after all these years? :p
