I think Wii fit will ultimately fail in Japan. The reason is simply. Obesity isn't a problem there. US with massive weight problems is much more friendly ground for it. Also all idea of this device seems wrong to me. Why pay for some poor scale with pressure control? It's extremely restricted. The hidden truth is you can train yoga even without it. |
Except the thing is peopleneed to be motivated, also even if obesity isn't as big of an issue, people still want to stay fit, and exercise keeps your brain healthy in old age, so just like Brain training, exercise will be popular
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)
