Very simply - the Wii is not even close to satisfying demand, let alone anything else. So - at the moment its completely dependent on production - which is a very predictable, and simple thing to follow.

The scary thing is titles that will REALLY expand the market are yet to hit - Mario Kart & WiiFit (let alone anything else).

Its a no-brainer than Wii sales will hit 40m+ this year - and maybe even 50m, if Ninty can get the production right. Denying this simply means you haven't considered the problem properly.

We have about 9 months left in the year - including the holidays. Which is more unlikely?

PS3 selling 8-12m (after selling 11m since launch)
Wii selling 6-10m (after selling 23m since launch)

Your worst prediction for the PS3 (from now) almost has it selling more units than the best prediction for the Wii. And even *you* know that's just not gonna happen...
