Have you ever considered that most of the people currenently buying a PS2 are those who want a wii but can not find one. Once they can get a wii, they will.

If you don't beleive me, find someone who recently bought a PS2.

 

 

Not true. The Wii broke the market and gathered new buyers who wouldn't ordinarily buy a videogame system. As I said with the Wii the female male ratio now is 50/50 unlike any other system besides the DS. Nintendo has an extremely high chance of reaching 70 million by the end of next year.

 

 70 million is the low end of what they will reach, pretty much if sales are the same as this year, if production is increased then it'll be much higher



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
