| trestres said: @Avinash: Wii maintained its sales because 2 weeks later Wii Fit was being released. You chose an abnormal period. As others have said, Wii has the lowest attach ratio, so I don't understand where you are trying to go with this. |
Ok, take this period, long after Wii fit is out and Brawl and Kart, its still selling around 1.8 million a week, you say it was abnormal back then, its still maintaining a higher software level.
Also as I pointed out the tie ratio is more due to the way its hardware sales often bounce up disproportionately to its software sales, but that doesn't change that it continues to move a ton of software during those periods.
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)
