Then I would take the time to do the market research and come up with a reasonable answer. Just saying you think it's going to do as well as the Wii doesn't do anyone any good, especially since he said the same thing about the Wii U.

It does not do any good? How do this hurt them?

Oh, and btw, he didn't say the same about Wii U. In fact, he was very esceptical about it calling it a "tough sell" before release. Talking about research...

It hurts them because now when it doesn't do those numbers it's seen as a faliure. It also makes Nintendo look really out of touch.
