Not to be rude but the predictions in your sig kind of makes me see this post in a strange light. The Wii was guaranteed to sell past 45 million in 2008, it was also guaranteed to exceed 50% marketshare by the same time and was for certain going to move more than 75 million by 2009, 70 million at the very and extremely implausible least. Anyone daring to suggest below 70 million were blind fanboys and deranged fools only. I myself remember laughing at Crazzyman or some such claiming 62 million or some such by end of 2009. Turns out he was closer than all of us.
Don't be too sure. It did drop yoy in 2009, quite a lot in the last quarter and claiming other feats it is guaranteed to achieve may prove hasty yet again. We don't know but my guess is as good as yours (if not better going by the past).
PS: Where's John Lucas? All his predictions have failed more spectacularly than anybody else's, I'd think he'd want to comment on that some time.

Nope yours are far worse going by the past, that's why I laughed at you, go look at the PS2 sales, year to year, and compare to Wii which has constantly tracked higher, and tell me if PS2 ever dropped from almost 22 million to 17 million, lol
|
The PS2 is not the Wii and certainly did not drop yoy in its 3rd year on the market at a higher price. And how are mine far worse? Do elaborate.
Edit; numonex; no one's predictions are as ridiculous as JL's. Trust me. Have you seen them? He got one right though, the Wii would sell well. |
Actually Wii launched in 2006, making 2009 its fourth year, and PS2 also dropped in its fourth year, 2003 it dropped from 21 million in 2002 to 19 million in 2003.
And again, why would Wii drop so far when PS2 never did, lol
So yeah your predictions are pretty bad, just going off history
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)
