But expecting any of the three consoles makers to sell 6m this holiday season is reaching IMO. Not even the infinitely supplied 360 and Halo are going to get those kind of numbers IMO.

 

Holiday season meaning Thanksgiving through January, the Wii will sell 6 million EASY

 

 I still dont see that happening. You are saying from the last Thursday of November through January 31st 2008, Nintendo will sell through 6 million Wii's? What is that like 10 weeks? 600k a week for 10 weeks straight and dont forget 4 of those weeks fall outside of the holiday shopping craze as they are in the month of January. I think thats a bit a wishful thinking IMO. I dont have the numbers, but wouldnt that set some type of holiday season record? I cant see any console doing that. 600k a WEEK? Thats insane enough, but possible during the holidays. However 600k a week for ten consecutive weeks.

 

I dont see it happening.

 Probably not six million, but 3-4 is definetly possible, DS was selling like a million for a couple of weeks in Japan during the holidays, either last year or the year before, so if Ninty had enough supply I could see them getting about 4 million
