For Black Friday week, Nintendo sold about 800,000 Wii consoles and about the same number of DS systems. That’s more than double the 350,000 sold this time last year.

“I see no negative signs so far,” Iwata, 49, said in an interview yesterday in Kyoto, Japan, where Nintendo is based. “Until the end of this calendar year, sales will be in line with our expectations.”
