It's more or less a certainty because Nintendo's projection is 52 million April 1st 2009 and Nintendo always is very conservative in its shipment estimates.

 

 So Nintendo are conservative at that estimates? So they really think they can sell more than 52 million Wiis at the end of the fiscal year?

 

Yes, that's what their projections are. They basically promise the shareholders that that's the amount of Wii's they'll sell. And Nintendo is not the company to make promises they can't deliver, so yes, it's a certainty that on April 1st at least 52 million Wii's have been shipped, which in case of Wii is more or less the same as sold.
