A recent survey by My Voucher Codes polled a survey of over 1,000 Wii owners revealed that nearly half had not used their Wii in the past six-months. What’s more of those who used their Wii console in the last month, 39 percent said they only used the system to play Wii Fit.

“The Wii really was a novelty when it first came out, but following the release of new motion controlled gaming platforms it appears that people have lost enthusiasm for the console,” said Mark Pearson, Chairman of My Voucher Codes. “Wii’s are a great choice, particularly for families who want to keep all ages entertained; but, inevitably, new platforms start to take over, as motion-controlled technology develops and improves across the board.”

“It’s quite surprising to see that over half of people who own a Wii haven’t used it in the past six months or more; but realistically, it’s simply another example of the latest technology starting to become outdated, he observed.
