The Nintendo Wii launch in Australia yesterday was a different experience than the Wii’s launch elsewhere. In other countries, thousands of gamers lined up ahead of time to get their hands on a Wii, however, in Australia, only a few hundred gamers lined up ahead of time across the entire country.

Nonetheless, I still suspect the Wii will do well in Australia, as a large number of Aussies pre-ordered the system. Currently, only the Wii and Xbox 360 are in Australia, with the PS3 joining the party sometime in March, 2007.
