hahahaha. that's exactly why i think he's insane for the 500m estimate. i'm leaning more toward 400m to 450m, myself. =p and there will definitely be a good number of people who own two or three Wiis by generation's end. Also, I have a prediction about the Wii. I think Nintendo will do with the Wii what they did with the GBA. They will release a "third tier" successor to it (what the DS was for the GBA) that will be able to play ALL Wii games, but will be more powerful and able to play much more. However, they will continue support for the Wii for years to come afterwards, and the Wii will face a ten year (or more) lifespan. Easily.
