Wii for Sale

 
 

This is the sensationalist headline that was propagated by some analysts recently. They looked at the current situation and somehow predicted the PS3 would start to outsell the Wii in 2008 and onward until 2011 where total PS3 sales will surpass Wii sales.

The current situation is that the Wii is simply kicking some butt right now and that isn't going to change for awhile. Analysts are usually wrong so we'll have to wait and see what happens. All we really know is that the Nintendo Wii is kicking some serious ass right now. 

 
 

Here's your chance to give an amazingly fun gift these holidays, but it won't cost you a fortune. Nintendo recently allowed users to purchase Virtual Console games not for themselves, but for someone else. It's designed to take advantage of the addictive gift giving nature of humans. The present gets directly sent to the other person and it comes in a gift wrapped envelope

This is a great feature which is sure to sell even more Virtual Console games. The great is that the games are relatively cheap, but there is so much fun to be had. This is a great way to put a smile on someone's face without putting a huge dent in your wallet. 

 
 

There's a listing on eBay for a Nintendo Wii which is going for $10,000 on Buy It Now. You're probably wondering if this Nintendo Wii is encrusted in diamonds, but it turns out thats not it. The special part of the listing is that a man dressed in a Santa Clause Suit will come to your door and deliver the Nintendo Wii himself on Christmas day.

Yeah, it sounds already pretty ridiculous. If you thought no one would bid on it, think again. The bidding is already at $4000 and climbing. Sounds like some rich parents have a great idea of surprisingly their kids with a Wii.

 
 

It turns out that the Japanese have another feature that the rest of the world is lacking. It is the ability to give virtual console gifts, which you can send your friend your favorite NES game that nobody liked but you!

The Virtual Console gift giving system is smart enough to know if the recipient already has the game so you won't be facing those problems when you try to send Super Mario Bros. The present arrives in a gift wrapped envelope which is pretty awesome.

Nintendo says they will roll this out for the holidays to the rest of the world so hang tight!
