2 million Wiis produced so far

2 million Wiis produced so far

A report just out states that 2 million Wiis have been manufactured in the 3rd quarter of this year (July - September). This figure has exceeded all expectations. Furthermore, a staggering 7-9 million units are expected in addition during the fourth quarter. Nintendo are clearly doing their very best to meet demands and ensure no one is left out on launch day. Go Wii!

Yay that's awesome news! Everyone should get a Wii now. Still I'd preorder like I have just in case most of them sell out.

Well of course the Wii will sell out. How many fans are there? Say 8 million and Nintendo is creating 10 million I think. If it attracts non gamers, Wii will be sold out within a week!

I'm a pessimist so I'll believe it when it happens. But if it's true then that's great news.

Whoa, that's a lot of Wiis. One thing though, Nintendo has always done a great job of keeping their systems in stock during a launch holiday, so why do Sony and Microsoft do so poorly in that area?

Hell yeah! Even if they don't quite meet those numbers that's still better than 360 & PS3. Rock on Nintendo!

What places are taking pre-orders? Everywhere I go they won't touch pre-orders with a 10 foot pole.

Splinter cell sadly has a point. But then again, most of the 6 billion are poor. Heh heh.
