After taking a backseat to Final Fantasy XIII and the PlayStation 3, Nintendo had a very merry Christmas week in Japan, another 215,000 Wiis in Japanese gamers’ waggle-hungry, Mushroom Kingdom-platforming hands.
With a little help from Mario, Luigi and two Toads, the Wii scored first place on Media Create‘s weekly hardware chart, nearly doubling PS3s sales during the same period. Suppose that selling a half-million copies of New Super Mario Bros. Wii will do that for one’s platform.
