Wii, closing the gap

The website seems to update the wii much more often than the 360 and while it always gives the 360 the lower end of the estimates it gives the wii the upper end. I don't doubt that the wii will have sold 6 million by the end of march, but to that end I also don't doubt that the 360 is above 10 million. vgcharts is in no way the end all of sales and only the companies themselves know how many they've sold... in fact, when Nintendo announced they had sold 4.5 million vgcharts already had them at 5 million... and posts like this, which are specifically designed to target the 360 and ps3 are silly. I also feel like a lot of people here attack the ps3, although there are an equal number of sony defenders here to follow up the attacks there is little to know damage control for the constant abuse that forum admins and posters do to the 360 here. The reason the website's Wii numbers go up more frequently than the 360's is simply because weekly numbers come out for Japan and the 360 does not sell many there to make a difference where as the Wii does.

I know that every week the Wii and PS3's gets an update from Japan but have you noticed how when the NPD numbers come out the Wii estimates get lowered?? It was at 6 million, but now it's at 5.8. Did the 360 numbers change? nope not really. and as for Starcraft original post - When will we destroy X360 in sales?! Destroy?? Never, the Wii is not a Next Gen console. It's great, but it seriously lacks the power to run next gen games. The Wii will surpass the Xbox 360 for a short while, but the 360 train will keep jogging along and repass it to claim it's right full spot as King! - Future of Wii's sales! Prediction (pulling this one out of my ass)- This will be Wii's best year in sales, 2008 and so on will show Wii declining in sales year after year (which is when the 360 will resurpass it)
