What will be the impact of Nintendo Selling 10 Million Wiis in Less Than a Year?

It puts them on the right track. I love the fact that Nintendo is back on top.

Hell, hopefully it will obtain the only thing it NEEDS: quality third party titles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!nimblemiix

with online play =]

Nintendo sold 10 million Wii's?!?!? I must have missed the memo... They're on top too? I thought the 360 was still winning!Wiifanboy_4life

The last official number was on the 25th of july and it was 9.27 mil, which means any day arround now theyshould break the 10 mil mark

APPROXIMENTLY....Wii has already sold 10.41 Million units due to an update from Austrailia.. (41.6 % of market share)

360 has already sold about 10.43 million units (41.7 % of market share)

PS3 has sold 4.16 million (16.6 % of market share)

I'm not sure what the impact will be. They already have a huge impact all over the world with games like Wii Play, Wii Sports (in Japan, its a separate game), Mario Party (8? or was it 9?), etc. That's not including the monster we know as the DS.

The Impact of Nintendo Selling 10 Million Wiis in Less Than a Year is a list (surprisingly) of 10 different things that will happen:

1. Hunger in all Third World countries will cease to be a concern.

2. There will be a result of harsher sentencing for parole violators.

3. Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy will maintain its position as the crappiest hour on television and bring about a revolt led by other game show hosts, including (but not limited to) Howie, Regis, Barker, who will burndown the ABC studio and make grilled Cheeseon the burning Wheel anduse the contestant drawing pads to play obsceneforms of pictionary.

4. Cats and dogs will come together and end their years of hatred and fighting.

5. 7/11's will be run by young, up and coming mormon missionaries to help bring about new customers who dont just want to drink slurpees and steal condoms.

6. North Korea and South Korea will settle their absurd differences and (shock) form a country called SNorkea. Those hilarious snorkeanians...

7. I will own one of those freaking amazing Microsoft computer coffee tables and totally play pacman on it like at those restaurants in the waiting room.

8. McDonalds and Burger King will decide to settle their differences and let The King and Ronald duke it out in a Japanese Godzilla studio, complete with miniature scaled skyscrapers and voice dubbed cut action sequences featuring Japanese Actors we've never heard of.

9. Posters on Gamespot will finally stop posting comments featuring "What if the impact....blah friggin blah" and as a result lead to me having more time to figure out what bills i need to pay rather than thinking up a list of 10 different responses.

Oh yeah, one more.

10. And in 10 years, nobody will really care about the Impact the Wii had, especially since there will be at least another 10 different inventions (probably one or two done by Nintendo) and this post will still not matter even then...andI still won't be able to spell!

Lol and bob barker is retired now so he wont be one of the game show hosts that burns down abc it will be Drew carry (or however you spell his name) the new host of the price is right

Its helping them, but they need to get their games out there, i think it was a mistake releasing the big 3 all so close to each other, especially SMG and SSBB, but they will sell wiis in the holiday season.Haziqonfire

they should have released metroid during drought. everybody would have been clambering for it. but if it's got to be perfect..... im not a metroid fan anyway but it would have helped. and maybe mario galaxy a few months before smash? they're really too close.

I don't think it was a mistake. SSBB has the loyal fans, who will buy the game nonetheless, and SMG...well, "hardcore" gamers will pick up the game for sure, and "casual" gamers will get it too (because everyone knows who Mario is). Also, since people recognize Mario, when a person buys a Wii a couple years down the road, SMG will most likely be the first game they'll pick up, just because Mario games are always known to be good starters.

It puts them on the right track. I love the fact that Nintendo is back on top.

yeah

It means they will make some arrogant statement about how the Wii will surpass the PS2 in sales. ...Or did they already say that?Mop_it_up

And when it does pass it in sales, you will say "bu bu bu :cry:"
