Nintendo has had an amazing run in the new systems war with rivals Sony and Microsoft, and such a run deserves a little bit of the limelight. As they go into the new year, they have promised many things for us such as Brawl, and a lot more Wiis for the everyday buyer.
Even though the shipment of Wiis were short in '07, the sales for the Nintendo Wii are amazingly high, and also for the Ds. These numbers surpassed those that anyone ever thought it would get to. The sales for the Nintendo Ds and Wii are as follows:
