Analyst predicting big month for Wii NPD sales data
“The amount sold in March will be a direct reflection of the current demand levels for the Nintendo Wii, which appears to still be considerably strong. While for most consoles this demand level would normally decrease over time and be revived via a price cut, we do not believe this is the case with the Nintendo Wii. We expect sales to remain strong from month-to-month and any dip in demand will be rejuvenated with the release of highly anticipated titles such as EA Active, Punch-Out and the release of the Wii Motion Plus accessory.” – Analyst Jesse Divnich from the Electronic Entertainment Design and Research
