| Sky Render said: Let's see... They've made about 20 million so far, and are likely to up production again once the fiscal year ends in March, so let's calculate this out... To date: ~20mil (highest: 1.8mil/month) Feb 2008 to Feb 2009: ~60mil (+40mil) (highest: 3.5mil/month) Feb 2009 to Feb 2010: ~102mil (+42mil) (highest: 3.5mil/month) Feb 2010 to Feb 2011: ~134mil (+32mil) (highest: 2.7mil/month) Feb 2011 to Feb 2012: ~155mil (+21mil) (highest: 1.8mil/month) This is based off of standard production trends of top-selling consoles, adjusted for the fact that a price drop has not yet happened. Said price drop will likely occur in 2009 at earliest (based off of continued supply shortages in spite of heightened production), hence why that's basically their banner year by my prediction. This is also assuming that they work along the same trends as the PS2 did, which seems... marginally unlikely. The Wii's target market is substantially bigger. So take this as a more or less "worst-case scenario" prediction, if you will. |
