70 million for me.

I chose the 71-73 option.



The most popular option is 70 million or below.

These people are going to feel very silly in a year's time.

 Yeah 70 million or less is ridiculous, 74 million minimum is a certainty

I voted 74-76 million. I don't see why it should sell very much more this year than last, really.

Anything below 73 or above 77 is quite unrealistic if you ask me. I went with the 74-76 million option.



Well today's the last day people. If you've voted...but haven't signed the thread, make sure to get in here and do it quick. How else will everyone know you were the greatest VGC prophet?



minumum sales is 74.8m, given 46m at end of 2008, and manufacturing at 2.4m per month.

I'm guessing they ramp up production to 3m per month for the second half of the year, which would add roughly another 3m to that total, so I'll say 78m, give or take 1m.



Why couldn't the poll wait until after the FY ended? It's no good to guess now - we don't even know how much Nintendo is planning on making/selling yet.



Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.
