for nintendo to get up to 100m wii's sold by december 2011, they have to start selling about 420,000 units weekly
to get up to 100m wii's sold by december 2012, they have to sell about 225,000 units weekly
if wiis hardware sales stay pretty close to constant they will reach 100m sales in about april of 2013
i dont think wii sales will stay constant, they'll continue their decline a bit after a new years sales increase. i doubt it'll get to 100m

Except sales don't work like that ....... despite it's low 130k/150k's over the last few months, it'll actually average 350k/400k a week sales this year.
By the end of this year it'll be 85 mill. It's not going to drop from 18 mill this year to sub 10 mill next year, not gonna happen, it'll have a price cut next year as well. So 95 mill by end of 2011 is a lock. So that leaves 5 mill, will do it by mid 2012 at the latest.

85M shipped? I think so, also I thought wii would do 18M this year but Wagram said it wont sell another 9M this year. In the 2010 Yoy article you have Wii over 10M whilst VGchartz has it at 9M, why the difference? unless your counting the last week of December 2009.

Exactly the reason. 85 mill shipped seems the target, probably 82.5 mill sold, won't sell 9 millon this holiday.
