Those DS and Wii numbers makes you wonder if the DS isn't starting to cannibalize Wii sales in the West too...
Not a terrible thing if you are Nintendo though....

If that were true, then it would mean the future of gaming is handhelds, not consoles, and that the doom meter returns to Sony and MS

Or that handhelds are the future for casual gamers...

Looking at overall sales, we could say csual gamers are the future of videogames. ;)

Well the Wii marketshare is slowly going down so who knows...

 

Well that's more because Sony has increased its sales by aggressive price cutting and bundling, while continuing to lose money.

 

Nintendo's marketshare may be down, but its still swimming in cash, seems to indicate its a healthier company than Sony.



 

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)
