Wii predicted figures:

 

Week#1: 190k (week starting October 23rd)
Week#2: 300k (Galaxy in Japan)
Week#3: 250k
Week#4: 350k (Galaxy in US, 12th-19th November)
Week#5: 600k (Thanksgivin, big releases, Europe Galaxy?)
Week#6: 500k (26th Nov - 2nd Dec)
Week#7: 550k (3rd Dec - 9th Dec)
Week#8: 650k (10th Dec - 16nd Dec)
Week#9: 800k (17th Dec - 23nd Dec)
Week#10: 1.1m (24th Dec - 30nd Dec)

Total: 5,290k (5.3m)

 

Time for a quick revisit & summary:

Actual Wii sales figures:

Week#1: 317k (stronger Europe + US figures than expected)

Week#2: 282k (weaker Wii figures in Japan than expected, post Galaxy launch)

Week#3: 264k (week ending 10th Nov)

Week#4: 420k (week ending 17th Nov)

...

Week#4 blew projected sales out of the water (thanks to US sales) - so far, its tracking a lot higher than projected. 

Be interesting to see how this week tracks - 600k seems too ambitious! 500k might be possible though.
