    It's doing that good? Dang.

    Hopefully this game will actually be worth it.

    That is freaking awesome for the Wii fit. But i don't reckon they could keep it up forever. It's going to have to slow down eventually, but good for them. That is awesome.

    Nice to see that Wii Fit is selling like hotcakes! Even though it seems like a funky piece of kit, I probably won't get it since I'm low on cash right now, and I don't think that it will suit me enough to get much attention.

    Great to see it doing well, but I'll be happy with Brawl and Mario Kart for a while.

    Wow, that's crazy. 90 in a minute? Nintendo is going to make a whole bunch of money off this! Maybe it's better then I first thought it would be.

    But isn't Woolworths a grocery store? xD

    But even so 90 sells in a minute that's pretty good for a newly released game! =D
