| Sky Render said: A prediction of an up to 3m/mo for the Wii is not an outlandish one, greenmedic. The Wii has experienced a 600,000 unit production hike at almost perfect 6-month intervals three times now (April 2007 to 1.2m, October 2007 to 1.8m, April 2008 to 2.4m). |
Unless the 2.4m production rate effective July 2008 is supposed to overlap within the next 6 months, an increase in production rate to 3m in 2008 is very outlandish.
Even going by a purely linear prediction that production rates will be increased every 6 months by 600k infinitely (obviously not possible), or for the remainder of the total production run for the Wii (also not possible), the next increase in production won't happen until Jan 2009 at the earliest.
Now if you want to start making predictions that production will be increased in 3 months by another 600k in time to make a difference for the holiday season, by all means, put it in your sig now and people will think you're the current John Lucas when it happens.
