Forums - Sales - Sales of wii hardware guesses once Wii fits released???

im different on 28 November 2007

sales will stay the same. nintendo cant even meet demand and since their moving more wii's to the u.s. from japan for christmas maybe even less sales. saw a source somewhere saying nintendo makes 40 dollars more for every wii sold in america then japan so it makes sense.

What does everyone think they will reach??? Im thinking phaps only 55-65k as SMG only gave hardware a modest rise, but then again this should appeal to all the casuals etc... hopefully im wrong.

I don't think it will increase hardware sales at all. WiiFit is not the type of game that will have a huge debut like Halo 3 or Mario Galaxy. I think it is the sort of thing that will build up over time depending greatly on word of mouth and whether or not mainstream "soft-news" sources and talk shows do features on it. If that happens, there will be a gradual hardware increase.

 Wii play sold like 170K its first week, and that was with Wii hardware in short supply, Wii Fit could have excellent sales



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
