Vgchartz Community: Did you expect these Wii sales?

Yes, I did. I made a post back at the end of October saying that Nintendo could do 19.33m this calandar year. I still think they can do it, but I'm going to be high in Japan and low everywhere else probably. My prediction goes through Jan 1 2011 as that week is mostly contained in 2010.

With some strong sales in NA it should easily make up for my ~400k overestimation for Japan.

Here is a chart with my prediction and numbers up until the week ending Dec 11th.

	Prediction (M)	Current (M)	Weekly Needed (K)
NA	8.96	7.33	543.33
JPN	2.16	1.34	273.33
EMEAA	8.21	6.35	620
Total	19.33	15.02	1436.67

Looks like you still rather lowballed it, :P.

Though for your yearly predictions, why do you expect Wii to decline almost a million more from 2010 to 2011 than from 2009 to 2010? With a price cut, some major software and possibly the Vitality Sensor, I would expect the decline to be smaller, if only slightly.
