Default Wii to outsell rivals in 2008

Nintendo's Wii console will outship and outsell the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 throughout 2007 and 2008, according to market research firm IDC.

But although the Xbox 360 has enjoyed a full year's head start over rivals, and the Wii is likely to perform well over the next two years, the company believes that this home console cycle will see no clear-cut dominant hardware.

"IDC believes hardware shipments of Nintendo's Wii will capture a little more than a third of the worldwide market by 2008, rising slightly above Sony's PS3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360," reported the firm.

Think of something from your childhood, a vivid memory. Between that time and now, every cell in your body has changed. So, were you really there?

Didn't they once say that the PSP would dominate the handheld market?

they went through a rough patch before the DS was released, the DS probably saved them along with the wii of course.

The cost of the machine has got to have something to do with its popularity though?

Absolutely. There were two reasons I brought a Wii, one was ease of use of the innovative controllers and the second was the price.
