EDIT: Title's wrong. It should be "By the END of 2011" Please don't point it out, as I have already noticed... >_>
This is an interesting question filled with many unknown factors, considering that Wii sales have beennear-unpredictable.
Sales: from 2006-2009 respectively:
2,932,010 | (-) | 2,932,010 |
16,387,941 | ( 459%) | 19,319,951 |
24,393,681 | ( 49%) | 43,713,632 |
21,802,884 | (-11%) | 65,516,516 |
And this year so far:
Wii | 15,020,754 | (-31%) | 80,537,270 |
The Wii's sales have been peculiar, as they have bounced around quite a bit, especially this year. At the end of the year, the Wii should have about 82-83 million, requiring 17million more, which matches this year's numbers. Should it be able to do so? Does Nintendo have the proper aces up their sleeves? Or have they taken too hard of a blow from Kinect?
