Commenting on this weekends North American Wii release, Nintendo UK Marketing Director Dawn Paine had this to say:

Quote:
“The success of the Wii launch in the US this weekend was phenomenal and is very encouraging. Hundreds of people queued up to purchase a Wii and fans weren't disappointed by the atmosphere at New York’s Times Square Toys “R” Us and Universal Citywalk’s Gamestop.

With just over 3 weeks until launch, we are very excited about Wii arriving in the UK and look forward to a really successful launch. Whether you're a non gamer or an avid gamer, Wii looks set to be top of all the Christmas lists this year, following in the footsteps of Nintendo DS as a groundbreaking market leader.”

Haha, "chrimbo", I miss that term.

But yeah, that's amazing, didn't they sell out within the hour or something due to excess pre-orders? Or was someone pulling my leg?
