this, and he predicted the Nintendo strategy of business disruption being successful. I think he took business classes and learned about disruption, then, connected the strategy to nintendo's wii and people have been praising him ever since. Most of everything else he mentions about business really demonstrates his lack of the video game industry in a fundamental way, which makes me think that he is interested in business first, and video games second. |
Except he did it before Wii's launch, one of the few to get it right before the Wii launched that it was going to be huge
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)
