| Legend11 said: I think the numbers being thrown around in this thread are ridiculous. But I guess if some people still believe Super Mario Galaxy is going to do between 20-40 million units then I guess some people will believe and dream of anything. Good luck with the 185 million Wii prediction, that's almost 3 times the current installed base of the DS. |
Key word is current, also Wii is scaling up faster than DS WW, I mean think about it, Nitnendo has been selling faster than any system in history and they still can't meet demand WW, they still can't meet demand after 14 motnhs of outselling everything
I think 185 is too conservative, and 70 million for PS3 is way too high, also this gen is likely to experience much greater growth than anything that has happened
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)
