No problem ..

I estimate Wii will finish anywhere from 109 million - 122 million TOPS.

150 million plus is just out of the questions.

I was persuaded it still could until Ninty announced Wii2 so early and basically gave up at the same time really pushing Wii anymore. Yes, it'll release some more games, yes, it'll cut price and keep on selling it, but its latest attitude about Wii's motion control made me change my mind: it's like it started wishing to quietly, softly killing it just because MS and Sony embraced it.

I expect Nintendo to fall short of their 13 mill figure by 1 mill at least, so 12 mill, 1 mill of that in Q1 2012. So I expect them to hit 97 million by the end of this year, shipped.

Hell no.

Fat chance of that happening.

Oh I meant 95M shipped also, but that sounds right.  I expect about 10M-11M.

I used to think that Wii could outsell the PS2 because I thought Nintendo was going to keep on pushing it but with a new Console on the way...it doesn't have a chance. I still think that if Nintendo waited to release a new System until 2014 or so and had Vitality Sensor and supported it with games it would have given the Wii a 2nd go...but they made it clear that they want to move on.

Lifetime Wii__114 Million

I can't tell you cause we don't have the aligned launches graphs and such anymore... and I'm too lazy to go through the data by hand.

It seems like it would still be possible to limp there.  Afterall, look at the PS2 itself, which kept selling even after superior versions of it were on the market.

I never thought the Wii would surpass the PS2. It's a legendary system that kept selling long after the launch of new hardware because major titles were still being released on it.

Something I have to admit though is, I never thought it would pass 60 million. I figured people would see the system for what I saw of it so many years ago. A Gamecube 2.5 with waggle control. The gems for the Wii were released few and far between. For me personally most of Nintendo's characters and franchises have absolutely no influence on me. Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Kirby, Super Smash Bros. etc did nothing for me and hasn't done anything for me in decades.

Games that would have really got me onto the Wii sooner (I did purchase a Wii, used for 50 bucks at a pawn shop in excellent condition). Starfox is no where to be seen. Fire Emblem was under supported. The Final Fantasy games sucked and there wasn't enough stuff like Madworld and No More Heroes.

While PS3 and (to a very much lesser degree) 360 are still hitting their stride. Gears 3 looks f****** amazing. Uncharted 3, inFAMOUS 2, Twisted Metal and Resistance 3 look to blow down every door possible.

Yes. And the PS3 will outsell the 360 in the United States.

It really depends on how long Nintendo decides to keep the Wii out there and how low the price of the Wii falls. Is the Wii drops to $99 in 2012 and Nintendo keeps it on the market for 3-4 more years, it could catch the PS2,
