"This won't be an issue (for Nintendo) anymore by the end of 2010, or if things don't run smoothly, by early 2011."
Maybe not but it is almost a given that the PS3 will pass the Wii's worldwide install base either before or in the 2010 Christmas season. The Wii might make it to 50 million pretty easily; however its momentum largely due to hardware limitations and the quality of games that will be coming to PS3 over the next two years -- a virtual hurricane of quality starting with games like Heavy Rain, Kojima's next project, God of War III, GT 5, Team ICO's game, MAG, RE5, the Final Fantasies, and on and on will have the Wii in a position much like New Orlean's levies trying to stand up to Katrina.
My most anticipated games: Whatever Hideo Kojima is going to do next, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Alan Wake, Wii Sports Resort. Cave Story Wiiware.
