For years Nintendo has been putting out some of the best games and gaming systems the world has seen, in my personal opinion of course, and they have done it yet again with the Wii. Though before it’s launch earlier this year, most of the consensus was that the X-Box 360 and Playstation 3 would both outsell the new Nintendo system, but it seems all those nay sayers have been proven wrong.

The numbers are in, courtesy the NPD Group, and Wii was the best-selling home console in February. The system, which sold a whopping 435,000 units in January to take the number one spot, racked up an additional 335,000 in sales for February, beating out all competitors. In fact, the only hardware to beat Wii out in February was the Nintendo DS, which sold 485,000 units. Combined, the two systems took 54 percent of the overall hardware market for the month, according to Nintendo. (via IGN)

Sales of both the X-Box 360 and the Playstation 3 are very low, in fact in the recent weeks when I was trying to find a Wii both X-box and the Playstaion 3 were in stock in every store I checked. Now, even I can agree that the Wii does not have the best graphics of the three next-gen systems, but for me they are just fine as the game play totally makes up for it, and at a price of just 250$ I feel it is the best choice.

I did in fact find and purchase a Wii, and have been having a blast playing around with it. I will post a overall review of it in a few days, until then I recommend you go out and get your hands on one, if you have not all ready.
