Ah, this is where your argument fails, price is not the determining aspect in sales, software is, and Wii fit will be able to propel Wii sales to new heights.


Oh yeah. The wii would seel 10 million a month with a price tag of $1000. Help me ronda!


If it had experiences worth $1000 dollars to people it would, if playing Wii wcould heal every ailment, in your body, increase your health with minimal effort and cause you to lose all excess fat without any effort, people would pay a $1000 dollars for it without a doubt


 You are funier than JL. No it won't sell in this masses if it would have a price tag of $1000. Never. I wouldn't have bought mine, that would just to expensive. Plain and Simple. Some would buy it, but never these masses. Forget about it.


 You might not buy it, but everyone else would if it did those things, its software and experiences that sell systems not price



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

wow how the analysts are starting to change their opinions on the Wii.

pre launch --- 360 will stay steady, PS3 will be huge and dominate out the gate. Wii will only get 18-20m in lifetime.

6 months later -- 360 will stay steady, Ps3 will begin to increase around holiday. Wii will eventually slow down and remain in 3rd with around 25m.

Now -- holy bat cow batman!! Wii will dominate even the PS2 lifetime, ps3 won't due well until 2009 and 360 will stay steady.

Bunch of losers. John Lucas should have your jobs!!!
Not all analysts have wised up.  Some chap at CNET or something still expects Wii to finish last.
