Also , bundles like the Madden 09 and CoO will probably help a lot in the US , and Im guessing that Sony has something up its sleeves in Others ( maybe a pricedrop ? ) . Now there is still a gap of nearly 8.5 million , and the PSP is far from selling badly , and I do bealive that it will do ~ 43 million untill the end of the year . For that the Wii should sell over 16 million units ... and to be honest I dont think it will do it ... But who knows , PSP sales could plummit and Wii sales could rise even more . You can never know the future :? |
See if the Wii sales depend very much on supply, and like I said the shipped (LTD) number from Nintendo is going to be between 42 and 44 million. And the indication from PSP sales so far in 2008 suggests to me it will end up about 43 million as long as sales keep their pace.
I personally think you will be correct about the PSP, which will end up about 43 million, while I think Wii supply will not quite be large enough (I am expecting the shipped figure to be announced as just over 43 million, but the sales will be 400-500k short of that)
The answer isn't however a simple "no" because it is going to be very close indeed. (unless PSP has a price drop, in which case I doubt it will end the year on less than 43 million and will likely end with 44 ish.)
