your saying it will be 300k billow last year in America? well you never know you might be right but I am guessing at least a 100k boost from last weeks sales that will put it at about 750k and add the japanese numbers and it will be 800k so hmm yeah I stand by what I said :D 

what thread? I must have missed it.

Awesome! At least someone still respects the power of the Wii, :D. I expect Americas to be 750k and Japan 56k. It should hit 79m, and if it does, it'll be following the curve I expect it to follow if it's gonna be up YOY for the most valuable part of the year, :D.

I hope it will :)

Yeah, that's right, let's make a thread for every million a console passes, especially during the holiday season?

this is a prediction that might or might not happen so this is not a "oh x console sold this much yay" thread :P

Well the next million will defintly be reasonable, because Wii will be at 80M.

Exactly.

80 Million is this:

80,000,000 

That's no kids play. 

You'd be better complaining about all the "GT5 sells x units in [name of individual country]" since said threads have been far more common the past week.

This is the first thread of it's kind I've seen thus far in a while.

When it passes those millions in weekly chunks of over a million at a time, its kind of significant. And the Wii has a large fanbase in here so I don't see the harm in this at all.

What I'm really curious about though, is how close to the DS the Wii will manage to be!
