Nintendo ups its sales projectionsDavedough @ Apr 06, 2007 11:43 | 3 comments
Credit can be given to its still wildly successful DS handheld, a successful launch of its new Wii console as well as several sleeper titles that gained massive popularity such as its Brain Teasing exercises.
Many analysts are surprised at Nintendo's success and the speed at which its units are continuously selling out even when faced with stiff competition from Sony's PS3 and the highly successful Microsoft Xbox 360.
Nintendo is expected to release its official sales figures on April 26.

Nintendo now states that it expects its official sales from the beginning of the year through March to be up from its expected 900 billion Yen ($8.1bn; £4.1bn) to an astounding 966 billion.

Nintendo did really bad with the Gamecube, and the n64 didn't really turn that much heads either, don't get me wrong though I love both of them. Gamecube lacked alot of good third party games... |
