Compared to the other ones in leo-j's signature. 

soriku: "PS3 will be lucky to make it to 5.5 Million by years end"

John lucas: "Wii will sell 60 million by the end of 2008"

avinash_Tyagi: "Wii will outsell the entire playstation family put together"

Rolstoppable: "The Wii will have at least tripled the combined sales of the 360  and PS3 once all three systems have stopped selling"



Soriku's prediction may already be off by more than 100% -- I didn't check to see when exactly the prediction was made.  (Depending on how you calculate difference in predicted vs. actual sales from prediction point to deadline.  Can someone tell me if it should be 100% or 50% or what?) 

avinash_Tyagi's goal for the Wii is already in excess of 250 million and is only going up, and RolStoppable's goal is potentially upwards of 300 million (ex. PS3 55m, 360 45m).  These guys' predictions may be less than 100% inaccurate, but still.  


 For my prediction to come true Wii only needs to sell an average of 30 million a year for the next eight years, easily doable with the way Wii demand is going (especially since Wii is over $200, remember below 200 is where console sales really skyrocket), all that is limiting is supply



 

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)
