In the first seven days, 600,000 Wiis were sold in the US, 400,000 in Japan the first thing in the morning, and 325,000 in Europe in less than two days. G4tv.com has now reported the sales figures for the first five weeks, a whopping 3.19 million Wiis changed owners and the triumph of Nintendo seems to go on.
Eight days ago Sony announced a million milestone for PS3, while Wii had earlier surpassed the two million mark. The pace hasn't slowed down, Wii is quickly catching on Xbox 360, which is currently enjoying the market share lead, due to year lead over PS3 and Wii. The current statistics at VGCharts.org show the Xbox 360 leading the market share of next-gen consoles with 7.90 million sold, Wii is second with 3.54 million, and PS3 waiting to launch in Europe with 1.21 million units.
