Anything can happen now.

Wii is down because it's uniqueness of motion controls got adopted by others, despite being late and the software available being a little lackluster I think it will cause some damage. Also the console is aging faster than others due to the weak hardware.

Commenting on the other consoles, 360 is getting good momentum cause of the slim model and reach, and PS3 past years sales weren't particularly exciting, so being up yoy is a no brainer.

Yet, the 3rd place is just glued with Sony now. No way it will pass 360 imo. Wii despite being down yoy by 3 millions, will  still be tracking above the PS2 right? That would set a new record for that fastest selling home console one more year I'd guess.

If Wii tops 100M by November 2012 it will be on par with PS2, but I think that is quite feasible.

Very fesible, it's not going to sell another 50 mill at the end of it's lifetime though the way it's tailing off.

By the way the 360 was tailing of before the Slim launched I'd say it would be a dead platform by the end of the next year. But Microsoft revitalized the hardware introducing a new model and a high tech camera, and now reportedly the RoD'd issues were pretty much solved. But the majority of the 360 out there are still early models, those that have more than 25% fry rate. And that's a lot and replacement units will keep flowing out of MS factories. You are wrong.

Nintendo can do the same to their platform, and since its failure rate is acceptable for an electronic device, and given the fact that the Wii is still tracking above the PS2, only if Nintendo doesn't want or doesn't care to revitalize wii sales, it won't surpass the PS2.

If Nintendo does the same to the Wii, you

No, you are. You seem to think they've only just solved the RROD problem, which highlights how much you actually know. (actually you've been wrong in this thread several times)

It's so funny how you put yourself in such a position where you can't be proven wrong, if Nintendo don't see revitalised Wii sales it's because "they don't want them" rubbish.

A slim Wii won't have the same impact as PS360 slims. For starters the Wii audience doesn't even care what it looks like, they don't have as many core gamers on the Wii as the PS3 or 360, (actually I doubt they have many) and the revisions made won't be significant.

Who would the target audience for a revised Wii be?
