Yeah i don't buy that the PS3 will be able to narrow the gap after 2009 with the Wii because of its tech, tech never wins console wars if it was we'd still be gaming on PC's and NES would have been a footnote. Only thing that will narrow the gap is if Nintendo's suppliers all meet with unfortunate accidents and the Wii parts start drying up. In fact the Wii entering a long slow decline in 2009 is flawed because of mass market pricing, since Wii can just drop to $199 and ignite sales beyond what they already are as history has shown largest sales occur after a drop below $200, plus Nintendo has clors held in reserve to push the sales back up, I don't see it dropping down in 2009.
And that doesn't even take into account the likely unfulfilled demand from 2008, increased developer support and further iterations in the Wii franchise
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
