It took a week for anyone to notice that Wal-Mart took down the downloads.
Clarification on the Wii numbers:
Amazon was selling Wiis at a rate of 17 per second. Disclaimer: This was only during the holiday season. Disclaimer disclaimer: This was only when the Wii was in stock.

Otherwise, according to my calculations, Amazon sold 536,112,000 Wiis in 2007. And I still don’t have one!
More importantly, You’ll never “need” a Wii.
All hail our Nintendo overlords!
“Guy gets $50,000 bill”
