Assuming the last part is true, your prediction of the Wii peaking is no more credible.

This is a prediction about the first few months, not about the long term success solely on the basis of the first few months. ----- If anyone's gonna tap a new market like China and India, it won't be Nintendo. Their 20 years in Europe shows us that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and PS1 had no chance of selling 100 million either. Do we really need to go in this circle again?

Sony and Microsoft will be pushed by Nintendo.

So you're saying Nintendo's going to release a new console and the other two will follow it because they're scared? Because that seems like it's out of left field, and I'm completely out there with it trying to figure out where it came from. ----- The Wii Sports pack-in and the Nintendo name are selling Wii Play. Plenty of hardcore gamers will buy it. What other choice do they have? They already got Zelda. So I guess that means the only other choice they have is Warioware. Oh wait.

 Well where is the evidence that the Wii has peaked? You don't have any. And any claims it's just a fad have no evidence.
