Pachter: Wii hit 1.4 million in November, 360 outsold PS3 2:1

wii4.jpg

Wedbush Morgan’s Michael Pachter just put out his US sales estimates for November, predicting a landslide victory for Wii.

“We estimate sell-through of 1,400,000 Wii, 800,000 Xbox 360 and 400,000 PS3 consoles,” he said.

“Our console sell-through forecasts reflect our belief that supplies for Wii hardware increased significantly again this month.”

More soon.

Was under 2:1, both last month and in November 2007.

(To be accurate – 1.95x in 10/08 and 1.65x in 11/07)

so with 360 being the cheapest console money can buy (apart from PS2 i think) and a barrage of advertising and it’s nearest competitor is nearly 3x more expensive with no advertising….only 2:1 (well slightly less actually)… hmm.

MS are really going for it… but to be fair you’d expect better numbers. Despite what MS and Sony say… the Wii is taking the mikey out of both of ‘em (unfortunately).

I’ve been a huge fan of Ninty over the years but I have to admit that I hardly use the Wii and I’ve tried to get into the whole waggle thing but it just doesn’t do it for me.
