Will Wii sales slow down after Christmas?

Nintendo has explained that they are now producing ~1.8 million consoles a month. So, of course there are questions abound!

1. Will this 1.8 million production rate continue after the holidays?
2. If it does, will that be enough to satisfy the non-holiday demand (Jan-Oct 2008)? (remember Nintendo WAS producing 1 million/month, and selling out in many places still).
3. How about the 360/PS3? Will their current price cuts help them (mostly 360) keep up with the Wii sales? The 360 is doing a fine job so far this holiday season, but can it continue?

 1, yes it will continue even if sales slow down (which they probably won't) Nintendo needs to fix it's mistake from this year so that it has enough stock in warehouses for next Christmas.

2. Most likely we will see sales jump up to around 1.4 million a month or possibly higher.  Too many highly sought after games coming out and already out for it to really drop much.

3. Yes and no, I see the 360 and PS3 sitting prettier then they did during the same time period as last year but they will see a drop in sales as their consoles are still priced too high.  The drop just won't be as bad as it was last time.
