@kantor---> I did say the fiscal year...

That thread is from 2007 =)

 

look at some of my quotes from that page:

 

"

Second, i said early 09, after the 1st quarter, or around march/april

Finally, i think the Wii will get a price cut next year, and i believe that Wii Fit/Smash Bros/Mario kart all are bigger system sellers than Mario Galaxy itself. Plus with the wii getting much more quality and support in terms of 3rd party sofware i think every gamer will want one, i can see you yourself buying a Wii at least only for Smash bros/mario kart, even if you love your xbox. The wii should be able to do around 10m just in christmas 08. Remember that a current problem for the Wii is Nintendo not being able to produce enough to supply all the demand... that should be fixed in 2008.

55m+ is the least i can see the Wii doing by early 09. "

".... however i agree that my prediction depends on two factors to be true, a Wii price cut and Nintendo improving their Wii production."

 

So i was expecting a price cut in 08 and sales of about 55million by the end of the fiscal year, with a price cut and increased production. Nintendo increased their production, but we didn't saw a price cut... and still i was really close :O)

 

by the way, it was funny to browse through some of my old posts and check all my old predictions =)

 

Like me predicting all 3 of Brawl, Kart and Wii Fit to outsell any ps3 game this year =)
