Nintendo's revolutionary Wii, launched yesterday, has already sold more than 650,000 consoles, shifting over twice as many as Sony's PS3.

Obviously, Wii's huge numbers are largely down to a bigger supply of available consoles than Sony managed for PS3's launch last week - if everyone who braved the utter madness had been able to bag a PS3, it's likely Sony would already be well on the way to catching up with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft, who has currentlysold more than seven million Xbox 360s worldwid🦩e.

But it's promising news for Nintendo; Wii is a brave experiment in🧔 gaming, whichlooks likeit'll be a successful one, especially since Nintendo is already making money on each console it sells. This stands in sharp contrast toSony, whichprobably won't see a penny of profit onPS3 hardwareuntil next year at the earliest, or even Microsoft, which lost a ton on each 360 sold w🦋hen the thing launched last year, but has now gotten costs down to an estimated $323 per console for the $399 Premium Pack.
