Sales - Wii Fit vs GTA IV - View Post

When do you predict WW sales for Wii Fit to overtake GTA IV?

Wii Fit had a significant head start in Japan, however GTA had a great first week, but has quickly leveled off.

My guess, Wii Fit will overtake GTA IV (PS3 and 360 combined) by the first of the year.  It's still supply constrained in USA, but I suspect that Nintendo is stock piling.

I always expected this to happen, but didn't really think it would be until mid to late 2009...  Only mention it because of all the excitement at GTA numbers and how some people (largely not on this site) claimed that Wii Fit would never (lifetime) come close to GTA IV numbers.

 

Spoiler graph.  Make your prediction first.

But they're not here, are they? Most people, including ioi, agreed that Wii Fit would sell more. And now it seems fairly likely that Mario Kart Wii could outdo GTA4 and I remember ioi stating that GTA4 would win by about 3 million.
