Given that Nintendo has been relatively slow upping production, and given that it won't beat out 1.8 million per month for the first few months, I don't see Nintendo producing anywhere near that number no matter how high the demand is. Even the DS is only going around 2.5 million/month right now. |
Okay, if LTD sales hit 20M this year, then like you say 'only' 40M in sales are needed in 2008. If the manufacture rate goes up to say, 2.0 average, that's another 24M to be at 44M LTD.
Then when the Gamestop Wii 'rain-check' proves successful this year, just issue 16M 'rain-checks' next Christmas, and *PRESTO* 60M sales!! :)
Torturing the numbers. Hear them scream.
