If you haven't read Crazzy's thread - LEAVE this thread, and go to that one.

This thread is simply a response to Crazzy's thread.


The differences:
1) PS2 cost 299$ in 2001 for whole year, Wii cost 250$ for now.

PS2 January 07th - Wii January 06th
Total - 247k <> Total - 522K

PS2 vs Wii = - 275K

PS2 January 14th - Wii January 13th
Total - 150k <> Total - 203K
PS2 vs Wii = - 328K

PS2 January 21th - Wii January 20th
Total - 136k <> Total - 258K
PS2 vs Wii = -450K

PS2 January 28th - Wii January 27th
Total - 177k <> Total - 313K
.
PS2 vs Wii= - 586K

PS2 February 04th - Wii February 03rd
Total - 185k <> Total - 343K

PS2 vs Wii = - 744K

PS2 February 11th - Wii February 10th
Total - 166k <> Total - 438K

PS2 vs Wii = -1016K

PS2 February 18th - Wii February 17th

Total - 163k <> Total - 235K

PS2 vs Wii = -1088K

PS2 February 25th - Wii February 24th

Total - 188k <> Total - 242K
PS2 vs Wii =  - 1142K

PS2 March 04th - Wii March 02nd
Total - 213k <> Total - 375K

PS2 vs Wii= - 1304

This means:

Wii sold 1304K more than Ps3 in 2 months 

Ps2 sold 1625, and Wii 2929K.

That means, Wii sold 80% more than Ps2. And since this for some insanely odd reason will keep going in %, the Wii will sell 28.8M this year. This is done by Crazzy's logic.


But of course, Wii won't keep the same % above Ps2. Here is the total sales for Ps2 the following months.  

Total Ps2 sales from 3rd March 2001 to 31st March 2001: 1225K. 

If the Wii were to continue selling 80% above, it would have to sell 2205K.

It will probably sell about 500K less than this.

7th April to 5th May: 1056K

To keep 80%: 1900K

Selling this much is possible, but 100K less is likely.

14th April to 12th May: 1021K

To keep 80%: 1837K

The Wii could very well sell this much.

19th May to 16th June: 817K

To keep 80%: 1470K

The Wii should have no problem at all selling this much.

23rd June to 21st July: 1379K

To keep 80%: 2482K

The Wii does not stand a change at selling this much. 600K less minimum.

28th July to 25th August: 1226K

To keep 80%: 2206K

The Wii does not stand a change at 2206. 400K less minimum.

1st September to 6th October: 1218K

To keep 80%: 2192K

The Wii will sell 300K less minimum.

13th October to 17th November: 1860K

To keep 80%: 3348K

The Wii is heaps away from selling that much.

24th November to 29th December: 5596K.

To keep 80% 10 072K

There is no way in hell the Wii can be close to matchin that.


But what does this mean?

Well, the Wii doesn't stand a change at keeping a rate of 80% above Ps3.

That also means, that if the Ps3 has to sell more than 56% of the Wii, to be even close to matchin the Ps2. As a matter of fact, it will still be far away.

If there are any mistakes, or anything that should be added, post it, and I'll add it.
