Dude, the wii wont make it to 20 million by the years end. Its imposssible.

17million is the target number.

18 million is possible(very likely if ninty increases stock)

Right now its 15, they need to produce 2 million wii's from now to decmber 31st(and they say they can only manage 1.8M)

My my you really do not listen to me (or anyone else) do you.

maybe you missed the 3 or 4 times i have explained this to you so i will try again.

Nintendo has been producing 1.8 million p/month since August or September, yet the past 3 months have not seen them come close to 1.8 million sold.....where exactly are those extra Wiis? lost in the post?

My second way of trying to explain it to you revolves around Nintendoes own estimations of what they will supply to retail by March 08, that being a total of 23.34 million Wiis.... I am quite sure Nintendo won't sell more than 4.5 million in those three months..... If you take that away from 23.3 you get 18.8 million.

even if you assume that in Jan/Feb/Mar they put out exactly 1.8mln each month, for a total of 5.4 million sold, that means a minimum of 17.9 million before 2008 starts. ABSOLUTE MINIMUM.
That of course is based off Nintendos usually conservative estimates of course...so it could well be higher.... 18 million is the 'target number' (read minimum) as you put it....the rest depends on Nintendos extra stock.
