Heh, the usual reactions to a John Lucas prediction, I see. Disbelief, skepticism, mockery, yet no constructive criticism to speak of.
I don't see Nintendo being quite that bold, to be honest; it goes against their conservative nature. However, 2007 showed that they can and will up production more than once per year. Being at 4.1mil a month by August is quite possible. They know they're far under demand and have plenty of wiggle room to increase it, so I can definitely see them reaching that milestone as long as they're convinced demand's not drying up any time soon. My estimate lies closer to about 3 million a month come April. When they see demand is still not getting met at that quantity, they'll up it again for August, likely to your predicted quantity (or possibly even slightly more).
