Sadly John Lucas predicted 60 million Wii's. Which makes him WAAAAY off.

he may have been WAAAAY off, but he was right in saying the Wii will sell like gangbusters, and if Nintendo can put it on shelves it would sell. At the time, most people thought 35-40m was pushing it for a Dec 31, 08 prediction, but they are most likely going to be right around 46-47m units.
Had Nintendo been able to produce enough to put 60m units on the shelves by Dec 31, 08, all 60m would have sold. They just started putting up signs in my area saying Wii in stock. Which is extremely impressive for a 2 year old system.
