While that means that sales have doubled in the past three months, the problem is that Wii has a much larger userbane now than it did back in the November-January period. 1.5 million in the first two months of the consoles life, when it was hard to find versus 1.8 million in the three months after isn’t the best of news.

Surely you know that Nintendo fans from the N64 age are into more than just Mario and Zelda, no? Where are WWE No Mercy, Pilotwings, GoldenEye, Super Smash Brothers,
