Anyone think we are all miles off on the Wii???


Maybe, way too high, no more than 4M I reckon.



Buying in 2015: Captain toad: treasure tracker,

mario maker

new 3ds

yoshi woolly world

zelda U

majora's mask 3d

the wii average went up for us this year but i guess it could be about right at 5.7m

what was it 6.8m last time

You should open up predictions again once GT5 release date comes out. That's going to screw everyone over.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Yeah.

I suck on PS3/360. Wish I could swap them around...

Wii is also going to be way down on a LOT of predictions.

 

I think we all made the predictions too early



                            

Me and Andrew21 are the only two people that predicted that wii would sell the worse of the three consoles.

Unless the wii has a pricecut this is looking the most likely senerio



All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion 

 Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

 jarrod said:The Xbox360 or ps3 will not sell more than 75million units

July 2009 daveJ saidTrue the wii has a large lead now but by 2017 the most likely result will be 1. ps3 2. xbox360 3. wii <-- wii's successor launched in 2011 effectively killing sales of the wii

 2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales

IDK, I still think that its family friendlyness could boost it relatively higher than competitors for Xmas. BTW, here in Italy Ninty already started advertising its best sellers quite heavily both for DS and Wii (more for DS, though). I have the impression that my 5.9M prediction for this Xmas will be closer to actual sales than my 5M prediction for Xmas 2009.

Maybe there is a rational reason behind current Ninty strategy, they could have chosen to prioritize profit margin instead of revenues and sales numbers, to remain with enough cash even after funding 3DS development and launch, and there could be other reasons too, for example having more titles to launch later, to keep Wii alive in its late years, and they could have also considered that Move, Kinect, Halo: Reach and GT5 would have "stolen" the spotlight too much anyway this Autumn and Xmas, making Wii launches risk to be partially wasted if they were too many.
