The Wii won't pass the PS2 in lifetime sales. I've explained why elsewhere but it's pretty clear why it won't.

- PS2 still selling, will get a surge of sales when the price drops again
- Wii has done exceptionally well for a little over a year, while the ps2 has done exceptionally well for over 7
- This generation I think the marketshare will be somewhat more evened out than it was last generation (though it is likely the wii will outsell the others handsomely).

 None of those give any support to why Wii can't outsell PS2



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
