3.2 to 3.5 by end of fiscal year would be my guess.

Here's hoping there will be a bigger increase (another 1.7m) before the year ends.

Sorry, Johnny, I'm necroing this thread for hindsight. Last I heard, we're still stuck at 2.5-3.0 million range for Monthly Worldwide Wii production. I remember how close JL came to hitting the mark on "how much the Wii will sell 20mil by 08" but it looks like this prediction was a bit too high.

If I got this wrong though, feel free to correct me and applaud JL.

EDIT: I was also willing to hit 3.8 million in my prediction, so I'm hardly rubbing this in his face.

Seppukuties is like LBP Lite, on crack. Play it already!

Hmm, I never saw this thread back then... whoa 4.1 million is very high, they might go for that in 2009, but I'm not even sure they'll be able to do that. Then again, who knows. If it does happen, they might be able to hit 90 million by the end of 2009! :p

Well, that would be crazy, but I don't think it's happening. I see production increasing to at least 2.5 million per month, maybe up to 3.5 million at most, but 4.1 million seems too much! I'd love if it was the case though (provided it did sell that much).

Probably spot on considering Nintendo's announcement of an undisclosed boost in production :)

Yes, I quoted myself.
