Look back at the amazing race the Nintendo Wii has had with it’s competitors the Play Station 3 and Xbox 360. No question Nintendo played the game on their terms, differentiating themselves from other next gen consoles by being the ‘other’ system. However, as time has worn on it looks like Nintendo is ‘THE’ system to have in any living room worldwide.
Yesterday we reported how Amazon announced that 17 Wii’s were sold every second on the popular eTail store. Now reports are surfacing that ‘Wii’ is the number one searched for item on Ebay and has been since Christmas on Tuesday. So what will 2008 hold for this still sought after item? I think we have a lot to look forward to, namely more quality games from Nintendo and MORE third party titles worth picking up.
So, get a Wii while you can, because this popular train isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
I guess even brick and mortar store have upped the anti. Wal Mart is now selling it with a January delivery date of 1/31. Tiem for all the stores to start gouging us who want it.
