"Nintendo's target was to sell 9 million Wii U units by the end of the 2014 financial year(Editor's note: Nintendo's fiscal year ends in March 2014); a target which it now seems very unlikely to meet, seeing as lifetime sales of the console currently sit at 3.91 million units. Despite this, it's opted not to modify the target."
No IGN, do your research SMH, 9m for the FY ending in March. Not 9m LTD by end of 2014 ... |
Is it true Iwata still refuses to revise that 9m estimate?
|
I don't see why he would, they revised their first fiscal forecast easily enough. Nintendo are usually quite moderate with their projections, perhaps Iwata simply wants to keep investors's faith for the holiday season? Who knows. Not that they'll love him when he misses that target grossly either.
|
I mean, he basically expects to sell ~6 million Wii Us by March.It seems pretty delusional.
|
No, he expects 8.5m more WiiUs by March >_> (9m for the fiscal year). That is just crazy, considering it's only at 500k in half the time now. 5m would be reasonable (and even then I think that's still a bit high).
|
I predict 3-4 million more Wii U's sold by March. That puts it at 7-8 million.
|
4 million more by the end of March seems likely, I agree. Then perhaps 13-14 million lifetime by CY 2014 if they step it up a notch.
