China and India are both getting richer all the time, and have growing middle classes that want to buy luxuries like electronics, but I think you're jumping the gun a bit here. They're becoming increasingly relevant all the time, but I don't expect them to pass individual European countries for many years, let alone become major territories by themselves.

The Wii is definitely blazing through 100M and probably even 150M, but that'll be by getting the attention of the "expanded audience" in the West. However, it could very well be that gaming spreading to the developing world will be the next major leap, easily dwarfing the leaps from SNES to PS, and PS2 to Wii.

I'm not betting any money on it, but if it does happen, then I'm saying I totally called it. =P
