| Quote: | Amazon.com claims it had the best holiday season so far, selling more than 5.4 million items by Christmas.
It managed to sell as many as 17 Nintendo Wii consoles per second, when they were in stock that is. The best selling games were Super Mario Galaxy and Call of Duty 4.
The company sold a bunch of hi def disc players, enough to cover seven football fields, or so they say at least, and if you were to line up all the GPS navigation devices sold in the holiday shopping spree, they would make a trail from New Yourk to Philadelphia. The best selling GPS devices were made by Garmin.
As for consumer electronics, Canon's Digital Elph (Ixus) outsold all other cameras and Samsung's LCD HDTVs proved very popular too. |
Got me one for Xmas...and yea, guess from where 
Can't say I am impressed graphics wise, but its sort a fun to stand in front of the telly and wave your arms like a fool |

I'm going to grab me a Wii sometime this year, hopefully the price will come down once stock levels get back to normal, it's crazy at the moment!
What's the cheapest they have been, before the xmas rush put the prices up for example?

In Germany they are around 239 euro
In England they have been as high as 300-400 euro due to the COMPLETE sell out of them!

I bought mine for 1995kr in a Swedish supermart this summer.
About 210 euros.
Doesn't seem to have been any shortage of Wii:s in Sweden either this holiday, like in UK and some other countries.
It's by far the funniest console out there.
