Wii Reaching One Million Consoles in Canada

The popularity of the Wii continues to soar everywhere, and Canada is no exception. Taking a two-to-one lead over its nearest competitor, the Wii has reached 986,200 units sold, and the number continues to climb, inching it toward the one million mark.

Consumers snapped up some 318,000 units of the innovative game console in the first six months of 2008, bringing total Wii unit sales in Canada to 986,200, according to the NPD Group which tracks the video game industry. An NPD spokesman said he expected the Wii to surpass one million when the July figures come in.
