And so another country falls to the Wii's charms. This week it's France, where the one millionth Wii console has just been snapped up, exactly one year after the machine launched. That, fact fans, means the Wii is the fastest selling video game system EVAR in the country, beating out the previous record, which was held by the DS.While it's great that Nintendo's console is kicking ass and taking names wherever it appears, it has to be said that reporting on the Wii's success is just getting plain repetitive now. Anybody know of anywhere the Wii is actually losing? Seriously, tell us. We're actually beginning to miss writing alarmist, smoking gun stories.

I think it's losing in Italy, unfortunately.

@2 C'est dommage que Nintendo semble detester les francais...
Too bad Nintendo seems to hate the French...

I believe Spain and Italy have been buying more PS3's lately, but Wii still has a substantial lead.

I think in Portugal Nintendo is losing too, i dont know any official numbers but i've seen them in a lot of places.
Everybody here is easily influenced by the ads and microsoft name, so i think nintendo has no chance in Portugal.
i will get my wii tomorrow. Finally.
My wife didn't wanted me to buy it, but i can be a pain in the a** so now she has finally let me get it.

In New Zealand (South of Australia on your map) we seem to be dominated by Sony.
