| JMan said: Don't forget, there's untapped markets out there...like China... Maybe it could sustain a higher rate. But if I were Nintendo, I'd try to keep it around the level of the DS unless it was still selling out. They seem to have figured out the demand for the DS. |
Well remember the Wii is selling faster than the DS did its first year and Wii fit keeps selling out in Japan So Wii probably has a lot more room for growth in its sales, maybe even more than DS
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)
