This is the stuff betting dreams are made of. I went through this thread and read most of the posts the two of you made. These are my propositions:

 Dulfite: 6 months of avatar and sig control that you are wrong in your prediction that the PS4 will sell at least 20 million less than the Wii, and another 6 months that you are wrong that it won't outsell the Wii.

Teriol: You seem very confident that the PS4 will fail to outsell the Wii. So, same deal as above. If you are correct, you have 6 months of avatar and sig contol over me, if you are incorrect, I have six months of control over you.

I'm a big, fat pig, and I want to slovenly, drool flying through the air, feast on two ripe melons.

The hilarious thing to me is how some Nintendo fans act like the Wii pulled off some undoable feat, completely ignoring that both the PS1 and PS2 outsold the Wii.  Even the PS3, which had just about everything going against it (high price and lesser 3rd party ports for the first year), came within 15M of it.  Which means that as far as that 20M less than the Wii bet goes, that's as good as won.  Hell, it'll be ~20M-22M less than the Wii by March of next year.  And even if the PS5 launches in late 2019, that'll be 1 1/2 more years for the PS4 to sell without its successor on the market.

With the exception of my beloved Vita, the 80 million+ range is the low end for PS systems, so yeah, making terrifying sales monsters are definitely in their wheelhouse.
