Yes, that's a direct lift, so don't be too harsh on us with the spellings. But going beyond that, it ain't entirely impossible, but we have yet to see any of the said ads, or official number for that matter, after all, so we're not pinning this up on the wall as a definite stat just yet. But if that's the case, then all's well and good.

And it won't be surprising, really. After all, they have been leading the pack in the Japan hardware sales. However, we do wonder how they are doing with their bold prediction of selling six million Wiis by March. That's just a pebble's throw away, you know. If we add up the North American and PAL Wii sales with the Japanese number, have they then succeeded?

Hmmm... an interesting saga unfolding before us, indeed. And with Microsoft even agreeing to the path Nintendo took with the Wii, then Ninty can definitely sleep soundly knowing that they pulled this next-gen leg off pretty well.
