But Wii still waiting for december's npd from you Wiisworld.com. Were they high for Nintendo you never did tell us were nintendos doomed system's sales really that bad wink'wink! I think maybe Wii world thought reporting on Wii, ds numbers december sales might have pushed some sony and microsoft fanboys over the edge and decided not to upset the weaker already bullied ps3 fan LOL.

Wiiboy, you are the biggest fanboy I've ever seen. Every time NPD figures are revealed, you always go on about ps3 & xbox not doing as well as Nintendo. I am a proud Wii and PS3 owner and don't really care about these figures. I enjoy them, that is all that matters.

It would only mean something if based on sales more 3rd parties would leave ps3 and xbox and make games for Wii. Sadly these companies don't like the Wii and most of the wiis game sales come from Nintendo themselves. Oh if only the Wii was HD.

Jordon seriously get over ones self. I fan what clearly deserves my attention. I ignore the two pimples on nintendo's butt called sony and microsoft. I UNDERSTAND WHAT GAMING IS. Hell I should do, I've gamed since 1980. Sony/microsoft have no place in it as the industry profits and numbers clearly prove and the house I live in mortgage free after my 2005 Nintendo stock investment (I seen Wii coming the 1980 to date game master like vision could see gaming was about to be saved). Funny the so called hardcore still don't get WHAT GAMING IS.

If Wii isn't gaming and ps3 is, explain a movie you watch on ps3 heavy-rain being a video-game, and calling wii-fit not a game! Wii fit you interact with the 3d graphics in real time i.e. YOU PLAY IT, therefore it's a game. HEAVY-RAIN you watch it, that's NOT A GAME, but ps3 is gaming and Wii isn't. SORRY that makes no sense. Movies ain't games, ps3 got what it deserved.
