| theRepublic said: It seems that New Super Mario Bros Wii will NOT have online play. This info came from the roundtable with Miyamoto. Does this change any predictions? |
No, not really, whether online play expands or contracts sales of a system, as the argument seems to be going, the fact is that this is going to be a hugely popular game, I mean a multiplayer sidescrolling mario is going to be hilarious fun to play with friends and family.
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)
