Hey I just wanted to say that this week will be the Wii's first million+ week. It would of sold over a million earlier but this Christmas stockpile will help boost it past one million. I am thinking 1.3-1.5 million this week.
| Magnific0 said: Take note Famine ;) you may be overlooking the really big title of 2008. Grand Theft Auto 4. You can safely bet that GTA4 will outsell EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING. |
I didn't mention that game because it's on both the 360 and PS3, although, I am curious as to how the game preforms on both consoles. It could move hardware for both consoles. Overall, I think sales will be favorable for the 360... in North America. Europe seems to be another story that could be benificial for the PS3.
I think 2008 is going to be the year when people find out what Wii demand really is. Nintendo may increase production a couple more times, and slowly find out that it's truly INFINITE. I'm guaranteeing 100 million Wiis sold by next Christmas.

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)

bb, u crazy az hell~ the Wii ain't gonna sell that much until christmas 2009 at the earliest- <///3
100m is just silly - JL type of numbers :)
I'll still by my earlier prediction - around 2m/month, for 25m for the year. Total by end of '08 will be around 43m-45m - with almost 50m sold by March '09.
Of course this is completely dependent on manufacturing - which could go up or down significantly.

I think they'll get around 28 million manufactured next year, bring the total number of Wii's sold to around 45-48 million next year (still so;d out with massive demand, in fact increasing demand)

I was just kidding in an attempt to draw attention to the fact that we still have no idea when the supply will meet up with the demand, IF EVER.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
