That seems amazingly optimistic...  considering LTD is lifetime to date, think the Wii U has sold significantly less then that so far.

you think 45mill is too optimistic?

LTD is lifetime to date.  So when someone says 45 millions units LTD, that means that it has already sold 45 million.

I was making a joke about the use of LTD in the title.  I've got not clue what the Wii U will sell by an exact number basis, my prediction has always been "a lot less then the Wii".

So i'd guess I dunno. 60-80M?   Really need numbers a few months out before any sort of meaningful comparison chart can be made.  Wouldn't be shocked if it was less.   Would be shocked if it was more, but only slightly so.
