I think the wii will hit 125-140.. If nintendo removed wii-u backwards compatibility like sony.. more.. (but that will not happend)

PS3 and 360 will proberly hit around 100 mill each... So i would think wii will win this gen with about 25-40 mill..

But remember.. sony's (mayby) 100 mill. was only becurse they payed peple to buy.. and lost billions of money.. that makes it even worse for sony, that they still end up last.. ( and It's a business term now.. don't do a sony)

That's not gonna happen, by a long shot. Nintendo only shipped 10m this last FY, they're looking at 6m~ for the upcoming year.

To get to 15m you're basically expecting it to be flat for the next 6 years.

Thats where you are wrong... And I tell you why...:)

This moment wii is at 95 mill sold.. that means it will hit 100 mill easy this new year.. at last years "sale speed"... ok...?

But... wait... Nintendo had told us them self.. that they planing to have both wii and wii-u for some time (casual and hardcore) and that means there will be another pricecut.. probely new bundels and one or two holliday AAA game.. And I expect wii to hit closer to 104-108 new year 2012-2013..

Thanks to the close to 1.000.000.000 wii games.. The cheap price.. The home community.. and nintendos "timeless" games.. it will have an appeal.. (and sell.. like the ps2)

That means.. New year 2013-2014.. 115-118 mill sold..

And becurse wii is so different from wii-u.. Cheap and crappy..:) It's the perfect situation for them.. two prices, two products, and two home gaming experinces.. Thats is better than one.. also when it comes to competing against sony and ms..

I don't see them pull it before 2017-2020.. when it is way over 125 mill.. (150 mill is not that crazy...) don't see any reason that wii shouldent do a "PS2".... PS2 was also under 100 mill, when ps3 came... And wii is the fastest selling console after all.. :)
