i am no expert but my predictions points to 17 mil this year... this with no price cut...

17 Million, lol, no way, last year they sold 22 million, and Wii sales plummeted for much of the year, this year they have shortages, and are already up yoy, so no way they'll lose 5 million in sales

but last year wii had 8 months of 150$ price advantage over the playstation (don't really know about xbox but i think this also applies to MS console too)... this year is going to be 12 months of only 100$ price advantage over the competition ... my 17mil (might go up to 19mil with very good holyday season and zelda) prediction its for, no wii price cut in 2010... in therms of software, wii doesn't have system sellers like its competitors IMO this year (yes zelda might bring some light into wii sales but not sure that comes this year)...

like i said, i am no expert...

It's a good thing you are no expert, all the experts predicted that the end of gen sales of the Wii would be 18 million..

 

The Wii does not sell based on such things as "price advantage over the PS3" - the Wii sells on its own merits. 2010 will see the greatest game releases on the Wii of any year, beating even 2008
