Wow.

Considering there shoudl be ~5.5 million Wiis shipped in the three months of October, November and December (in the Americas) the average weekly sales should be 260,000 per week from now till January!

Of course the few weeks leading up to Christmas from Black Friday will jump the total up lots, so they will naturally be lower than 260k before that.

How did you get those numbers? There are 13 weeks in the time. 5500K divided by 13 is 420K, not 260K.

Even if you include January, it's 320K.

I have absolutely no idea.

First of all I think I put the numbers the wrong way around (13/5.5) but that still doesn't come out right.... my calculator is old and solar powered, and doesn't work in low light so I suspect I didn't press the buttons slowly enough... or given the number I came up with, perhaps pressed the wrong buttons entirely.
