If the Wii had as long of a life as PS2, it will outsell it. However, I think the Wii 2 will be out before that day so I think it will never happen IMO.

 

The PS2 was not killed off by the PS3(or the Wii), why would the Wii be killed off by the Wii2 (or any other console)? 

Good point! However, the reason Wii will die after Wii 2 is because Nintendo will move to Wii 2 in game productions. Without Nintendo games, the Wii will not survive. The PS2 can live without Sony games.

 

That is a good point also, although don't let the Sony fanboys hear you saying the Nintendo first parties are more significant than the Sony ones :P I suspect however, that the huge lead Nintendo has (launches aligned) will be more than enough to offset the effects of the Wii2 releasing earlier (although in all likelihood it'll only be 6 months earlier) and the fact that the Wii relies on its 1st party more.

 

And hollywood - this is a multinational corporation that has managed to dominate 3 of the 5 generations of home console it's been in, and all of the portable generations. They have some quite clever people there. The NES had a lifespan of over 20 years, and the SNES about 13-14 if I remember correctly
