Through Monday we sold one copy of Wii Sports Resort roughly every 1.5 seconds continuously since it launched in the United States. This tells us consumers were eagerly waiting to get their hands on these fun activities, and it's a great start for a game that will have long-lasting appeal.Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing.
