Some outrageous predictions I see.

My guess is the Wii will sell anywhere between 70-110 million lifetime. Meaing Wii Sports, as unless Wii Sports 2 release I don't see it taken out of the bundle, would have that same range minus half of whatever Japan sales are if rates continue. So about 60-100 million for Wii Sports. Here's the rest of my predictions:

Wii Sports- 60-100 million
Wii Play- 20 million(at the most and that is really pushing it)
Wii Fit- 10 million
Wii Music- 5 million
Wii Chess- 2 million

Of course a lot of this is based off assumptions, such as Wii Sports won't be unbundled. Not to mention its really hard to predict how much Wii Music and Wii Chess will sell.

 Explain to me why the Wii which is selling better than any other console in history, even with supply constraints would sell less than the PS1 or PS2?



 

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)
