Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime has claimed the Wii will outsell the Xbox 360 in America in June.
Speaking to Bloomberg, Reggie said: "The Wii will surpass the Xbox 360 in total U.S. sales by June, helped by video-game titles including Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
According to NPD's January sales figures, the Xbox 360 leads the American market by just under two million units. The Wii outsold the 360 in January by 44,000, so if we take January as typical for future figures, the Wii will catch the 360 in about four years.
Seems like Reggie is putting a lot of faith into Wii Fit, then.
