Wii's Remarkable 2008: $60 Mil in US alone? 360 Paints Black Friday Green

Jacob Stutsman of SmashPad writes:

"For Nintendo, the rich keep getting richer. After a series of record breaking months, Forbes reports that Nintendo is set to shatter the Playstation 2's best selling year of 2003. The Wii, with over 6 million units sold so far this year, could sell as many as nine or ten million consoles this year in the US alone.

Unlike Microsoft and Sony, Nintendo makes a profit of $6 on every Wii sold. Some quick math tells us that at $6 each, Nintendo could rake in $60 million dollars this year from the United States alone in just Wii hardware sales."
