Wee - Global sales of the Nintendo Wii have passed 50 million

The Wii is currently the fastest selling game console in history, outselling the PlayStation 2.
This is according to company boss Satoru Iwata.

Man, I wish I had of got into that stock a few years back...geez....

Mr. Iwata also stated that he had sent Nintento DS 100 in the world.

"Almost no one expects to reach the current level of general acceptance. It is even beyond what to expect," said Iwata.

"The market has expanded as video games have been accepted by consumers, more than ever," said Nintendo's president, referring to the Game Developers Conference.

More than a third of the games on the Wii were sold last year than in any other platform, he said.

Last year 47% of sales were made by women.
