Nintendo’s new Wii™ has become the best-selling video game system of any kind in January in the United States, and the fastest-selling new-generation home system. According to the independent NPD Group, Wii sold through 435,503 systems to customers in its January reporting period. By comparison, that’s 70 percent higher than any other new video game system in its first January of availability during the last 10 years.

It was under supplied. Reggie said that shipments wouldn't get back on track until mid-March.

I agree. I was sure DS would be on top. To the topic: Way to go, Ninty.

Nintendo just can't make the number of systems needed to make everyone happy

True. The DS sold almost 2 million in December in the US alone - I can imagine what that might do to their supply.

This is because NPD took 5 weeks worth of sales instead of four as they usually do...
