He's basically saying that it will destroy your prediction considering it will sell about the number you predicted in Japan alone. And I agree with him. As someone else put it, for japan, this is like the most deadly "handheld" ever made.

My prediction for the WiiU is 150M.

What? Really?

I think so :) This will be a solid system, taking cues from the DS line and the Gamecube in one complete package. It also serves other customer needs like streaming television and things customers are looking for (I know I am).

It'll be big.

Yep, I feel so too.

Very solid launch line-up that caters to both the core and casual market, reasonably priced, Nintendo TVii, Miiverse,gamepad that brings it all together and next year we'll be seeing games like 3D Mario, Mario Kart, Monolith's game, etc. to continue momentum.

All Nintendo has to do now is get good marketing.

I find it hard to predict anything at the moment though, and maybe 150 might be a bit too optimistic at the moment. Who knows how competitively priced PS4/720 will be.
