| Cobretti2 said: first S-E 2011 prediction of new nintendo console in 2011 and now this from Suda51. It may appear like Nintendo is working closely with 3rd party developers so they can have an awesome launch. It will be interesting times. |
Or it may be just devs guessing, Nintendo already made it clear that they are working on a new console, they always do after the previous one launches, and people assume that Nintendo works on a 5 year cycle, so people are assuming 2011, however Nintendo already said they expect this gen to be longer, not to mention they are making huge sales and profits on the Wii, so releasing a successor in 2011, would be silly, not to mention Nintendo doesn't launch first, not since the NES, so 2011 seems unlikely, maybe 2012
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)
