I posted about this a couple of weeks ago at length so will keep it short today.
Can Wii reach 150 million, sure, but i'm not sure that China will have much impact.
Why
- Students from 12-18yrs go to school from 7am-10pm, 6days a week.
- Salary is low (as others have pointed out): 500 dollars a month in coastal cities but more like 150 dollars/month for most of China.
- Even assuming their are enough rich people to support a decent sized market it is going to take years for any of the console manufacturers to gain any kind of brand recognition. PC games are by far the most popular now, RTS, FPS and MMO. It would take a massive change for the tide to turn and i can't see how that's going to happen any time soon. Nothing happens fast in China.
- This is not even taking into account cultural factors with regard to computers, foreign products, overprotective parents and a multitude of others that converge on this issue.
I honestly meant this to be shorter;)
