Wii Fit + will have some effect, just like Wii Sports Resort. Wii hardware isn't going to suddenly double but these games sell well over long periods of time and make the hardware more attractive, especially during holiday periods. You can imagine a lot of mothers getting a Wii and Wii Fit Plus for Christmas for example.

New Super Mario Bros Wii is a different story - I do expect a strong immediate bump in hardware and very strong sales through the first 6 weeks, 6-8m worldwide by the end of the year isn't out of the question and should push Wii sales to well over 150k per week in Japan over the holidays.

bookmarked, sorry ioi I don't see this happening in Japan.

Actually its very likely, Wii was well over 100K last holidays in Japan, and last year its lineup was far weaker



 

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)
