| dib8rman said: 9 months is more than enough time to sell 28 million, 3 million basically a month, and I'm going to say the average would be 2.5 million a month which is in line with what I was reffering to above, so relatively if your speaking about 9 months then adding two months to my calculation on 7 would be around 28 million. What I don't understand is why Yushire was arguing my point knowing that you were speaking about 9 months and I was speaking about 7 where all I needed was clarification. I did also note that I wasn't sure if you were counting April. |
Wii production is only at 2.4 million per month. lets say Nintendo ship no more than 52 million by end of fiscal year and don't increase production.
they'll only be able to have 73.6 million (52 + [2.4*9]) shipped by end of 2009. even bringing forward some of january's stock won't get shipment to 80million by the end of 09.
shipment would have to be increased to 3.4million per month starting no later than July to have 80 million shipped.
a sell through of 80million would be even harder. sales would have to reach a new weekly average record. even higher than that of the DS. i haven't seen any software yet that convinces me to believe that demand would increase to such a height. though i'll be waiting for it to show in the next few months.
if the weekly average next year doesnt show an inrease early on, we may see a price cut midyear that would help boost sales.
