Final Fantasy XIII will put the PS3 over 5 million units sold in Japan. Will NSMBWii put the Wii over 10 million units sold in Japan?

FF13 won't push PS3 over 5 million, FF13 liftime sales in Japan are predicted to be 1.5-1.8 million, by Famitsu and Media create

Lets be generous and say 20% of FF13 buyers will purchase a PS3, that means FF13 will drive 300-360K PS3 sales basically FF13 would only put it above 4 million in Japan

 

And yet by the time GT5 comes out in March, the PS3 will have sold over 5 million units there.  There has to be a game that is primarily responsible for that.


Not necessarily, in fact considering PS3 sales are dropping into the mid 20K's a week in Japan, that means after the holidays, it probably will sell less than 300K in the first few weeks of the new year, it could very likely be below 5 million when GT5 launches

 

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)
