According to a press release issued by Nintendo, the Wii has now officially forged ahead of the Xbox 360 and is the best selling home console in the US. This being based on reliable NPD numbers.
"Equaling its status on a worldwide basis, Wii has become the best-selling video game console in the United States. According to independent sales tracking information from the NPD Group, over 666,000 Wii consoles were sold for the month of June, and nearly 10.9 million have been sold in the US during the 20 months following its November 2006 launch. The system is credited with breaking down the psychological barriers between gamers and non-gamers".
This news has sparked further rumors that it does, indeed, print money. That is all.

It was expected, Wii is the best internationally, and I don't say it, numbers do. GO Nintendo.
Nintendo4ever said:
Yeah! Wii and DS are the best.

I LOVE how M$ and Sony keep saying the Wii is not competition. That's right, they are no competition to the Wii.

Yay Nintendo.
Wii Rox said:
Isn't the fact that it sold 666,000 just a little scary.

Microsoft was bound to crumble at some stage, being not nearly as interesting or fun as the Wii.

Sigh. My ps3 and xbox360 fanboi friends are in total denial of this. They say US is stupid and they probably never even heard of PS3 and 360 and worldwide they say Wii can't even follow PS3 and 360. I think that's total bull.

666000 the mark of the beast. Wii worship a false god, Wii are doomed.

Sweet (not that this was unexpected), the Wii is GOING PLACES, I know it.

Go go go. At last. Nintendo takes back the throne.

12 years of mockery and Sony gets it's own medicine.

This is excellent news considering Ninty had an apparently bad E3 showing. But who cares anyway because the numbers speak for themselves and no one takes E3 that seriously now.

666000 Wiis sold in the 6th month! (The Omen theme song plays ominously!).

Ha! Who's on top now, Sony?

Nintendo Wii is the video game market leader of this generation and yet many game developers and hardcore gamers still think HD graphics are next-gen when next-gen is already enjoy by Nintendo's new way to play.
