When DQX hits Japan I think the system will start to gain some traction there. Then with Pikmin, WiiFit and others in the summer more growth. E3 could potentially create buzz and drive sales. I think at that stage we should be seeing sales averaging at least 50k per week, maybe more if some real awesome stuff is announced. As we move into fall with WindWaker at that stage sales should jump considerably, and if MarioU, MarioKart or both hit - massive jumps up to 6 figures sales and of course, huge weeks around Christmas. But as I said in the other thread, we need to know a little more about the titles. Super Mario Universe could have a huge impact. Super Mario Sunshine 2 could be a dud. Also, we need to know if there is going to be a price cut. If there is, I would expect sales to be 20-50% more with the same titles. |
You really don't think a Sunshine 2 could sell well? Didn't it sell over 6 million on Gamecube?
I don't expect a price cut anytime soon. It'd be one thing if that was what pushed them into taking losses per unit, but it already is. I think they're gonna wait and see how more software pushes sales before they take that risk.
