Prediction: Wii will hit 17-18 million consoles sold by year's end

[Magera]

I was thinking, By these numbers, Nintendo could well be nearing 10 Million consoles sold ahead of the PS3 end 2007.

If this was to happen, then all of a sudden, Jan 1st 2008 the PS3 started selling at 250K a month more then the Wii worldwide... (I know, Not gonna happen)...

Then it would take the PS3 - 40 months just to break even with Nintendo Numbers (Somewhere around March 2011)... They are already ahead by 5.5 million so it'll be 22 months as it stands. (Somewhere around Feb 2009 - and that's only if the PS3 OUTSOLD the Wii 250K consoles a month starting THIS month).

Onto the prediction side of things:-

Wii: 16 - 17 Million
Xbox 360: 13 - 14 Million
PS3: 6 - 6.5 Million (as it stands) 6.5 - 7.5 million (if the price of the 80G becomes $499)
