I'm not avoiding the topic. I'm talking about it dude. LOL.
I asked you if you know any other console that sold more this year than the Wii and you didn't reply ;)
Right now, the console is tracking above the PS2 in the same time in period, and tracking way above any other HD system.
Sure 360 and PS3 are getting boost, they having major hardware and software right now to lift it up, while the Wii has nothing on the hardware side and the software side is lackluster comparing to the HD machines (now someone will jump on me and start a list war with somebody else)
And yet, it still manages to sell terrible amounts.
Like I said, I got tired back in 2007 discussing sales and motion controls. As a Wii owner, I'm not impressed anymore by either motion controls that mimic what I've been praising since 2006 (and many other trolling) and I'm not impressed by sales of the 2nd and 3rd place consoles.
That's why I'm gonna wait for the numbers and don't waste anymore time trying to explain you what's second and third place, and whats 76 million and what's 45 and 41.
EDIT: Basically, what all this says is that 2011 is going to be a fine year for the Wii and it will hold up the house till Wii 2 kicks in.

No, yet again you're talking about lifetime sales.
Wii isn't even remotely dominant so far this year, and it's been beaten by BOTH HD systems since E3. Next year we'll see this even earlier. If you think that's "terrible" for 2nd and 3rd place consoles then it doesn't say much about the market leader does it. Wii had a price cut last year, but even before summer came around it was posting YoY losses despite being $50 cheaper? proof Wii price cuts arnt sustainable for more than 6 months, unlike PS360 ones.

Both HD systems have been butt raped by the Wii since launch. Suddenly the tables almost turned upside down this year, but like I said, in 2010 the Wii sold more and I bet with you that no console will surpass it this year. Neither the next.
Its all about timing with price cuts and compelling software.
Let's wait for the numbers and stop "spamming". We're derailing the thread a little, we shall move to a random "Wii is doomed" thread to discuss this.

Wouldn't take that bet, already said Wii will win this year. You havn't come up with any reasons as to why Wii will be ahead next year. HD consoles will be ahead by at least mid 2011, and they'll both have a good xmas season. Whilst it'll only get worse for the Wii ... sub 80k weeks are coming.

I'm sorry if I didn't made that clear to you. My reasons are:
- price cut (I don't know if the PS3 or 360 can have some price cut too without falling into losses again)
- Games: We are yet to zee Selda, Pikmin and Wii Relax or whatever they call to the Vitality Sensor. Nintendo can crap out 10, 15 and 20M sellers like anyone else can, so in this front no one can judge nothing.
- Redesign: Although this one might not happen. It did wonders for the 360 and PS3 though, but its not entirely possible.
The ultimate reason: It is the market leader console and the one that pioneered and made motion controls happen on the other consoles. People know about it. It will only sell.
My ultimattesterest reason: Ask TheSource if the Wii will be outsold by any HD console next year. He shall explain it way better than anyone else.
