I think the PS2 sales are about 120 million - 130 million after about 7 years...I'm pretty sure the Wii will pass that amount by about.... 2010-2011...and then it will go on to sell 300 MILLION UNITS- 500 MILLION UNITS LIFETIME....i think johnlucas's prediction is very close...

 

So what do you think???

 

EDIT: PRETEND THE TITLE SAYS "WHEN WILL THE WII BREAK PS2'S WW SALES RECORD"

You better believe it. Each year builds upon the last and the record success we're seeing now will only blow outward with every consecutive year. Viral. Wii is viral. THAT'S why it will sell like none other.

It's nice to see other people agreeing with my controversial visions.

If it were to sell 500 million consoles in its lifespan, it's life span would have to be 21 years:

If they produce 2 million consoles per month that would make 24 million consoles each year

500/24 = 21 years, they would have to sell out every year for 21 years to sell 500 million consoles!!

Even if they could make 4 million consoles each month it would still take 10 years of the Wii selling out every year to reach that much.

I'll be really surprised if it beats the PS2

Guess you'll just have to wait and see like everyone else.

Viral Wii + China + Japan + Europe + The Americas + Australia/New Zealand + the other PAL markets = minimum 240,000,000 lifetime Wii sold worldwide/maximum approximate around 500,000,000+ lifetime Wii sold.

They will sell 20 Million by this year's end which is unprecedented. They will go on to sell 60 Million by next year's end which will be once again unprecedented. You don't believe it, you can't conceive it and many people can't but when it comes to pass then that 240,000,000 to 500,000,000 range won't look so crazy after all. Oh and believe me it won't take 21 years to pull that off.

Time is a beautiful teacher. Give it an apple and be its pet.
