Those expectations are from early in the gen or before it properly started, I'm sure people thought PS3 would do 100m+ back in 2006. That thread is from 2008, so 2-3 years into the generation.

The 40,000,000 / 80,000,000 PSVita and Wii U was predict in 2013... when PSvita was selling super badly by one year, and Wii U after a succes launch, 3 badly month.

Damn, some people have predict Wii U and PSVita at +120,000,000!!!

The same for 3DS....

Some people have predict 165,000,000... in September 2013.

Oh well I stand corrected although Wii U predictions were still way too early in march 2013 to compare to ones made for PS3/360 in 2008 (3years after 360, 2+ after PS3). Those threads were in Nintendo Discussions, so that explains the grossly inflated numbers lol.

I'd like to see how predictions from general sales threads were towards the end of 2013 for Vita/Wi U. I imagine they were smaller
