News: More than 1.5 million Wii and DS systems sold.
While it doesn't look a lot like Christmas yet, Nintendo blanketed consumers with a storm of DS and Wii systems this past week.
From the time period between Sunday, November 21 and Saturday, November 27 (affectionately dubbed "Black Friday Week" by retailers), the hardware maker sold 900,000 DS systems and 600,000 Wii systems.
