Your long term growth strategy includes signing your name on the tombstone of a console that died years ago and is now having its grave robbed by the next generation? Hey, I think I met that monkey who works for you.

Died years ago? Nintendo had 9 of the top 10 games sold last week, 5 of which were on the Wii. I wouldn't exactly call that dead.

I'd also guess this signs them up for the WiiU
