Microsoft pulled a million consoles on one black friday a year or two ago when the Kinect was hugely popular, it could happen for Nintendo.

Oh I'm not saying it can't, and I hope they do make it. Its just that Nintendo has been missing a lot of their numbers lately, so there's always the possibility that they overestimated themselves again.he 

Despite having a better launch by the numbers than PS3 and Xbox 360 people are still calling it a failure, so hitting their estimated numbers wouldn't really matter anyway.

No, it is not a failure because it didnt hit those numbers. It did well and the Nintendo faithful stayed true to the system look at the attach rate of the games. Theres no way the casuals were involved in the majority of those sales. The failure is that Nintendo alienated the non-gamers who used the Wii and don't give a crap about their touch pad for gaming. Nintendo says they are trying to fight multiple battles including one with Apple phones and Android. It will come back to haunt them because they wont replicate the numebers or demand. As I said the numbers are high right now because of the Nintendo faithful.
