no you guys arent seeing my point---the wii /wii2 thing i am talking about is the same thing just with a face lift just like the ps2/ps2 slim


every one just says wii but you guys really cant see the see machine that is on the shelf now selling 20 mil + years 6 years from now can you?

i am putting alimit only on what will be done by the first version and the second

total i see the wii /wii2 selling close to 150-160 throu its life

then getting a completly diffrent machine and starting over at 1

Ahh! Now I understand what you mean.

Thinking of it, that is much more likely than most hypothesises here. Even mine :O(and take this from a real carping).

yes, i can see the current wii selling for many years to come

i don't see them releasing a 720p model until the next generation console, which will be a total replacement

hd is just not that important to the masses and they already know this...

@Fastrabbit

The number of homes with HD-tv is only increasing, so there is a good change Wii will see this in 3 years or so. Then that one will last 2 years, before a new console comes out. Of course, this is just random speculations.

It's not fair to count all the Wii Sports that are bundled with the Wii console.

At least there should be an adjusted number.

Estimate the number for Wii sports, what attach rate it would have if it only was sold as a stand alone game. ~55% --->11 M?

Wii Sports 11M
Wii Play 8,7M - btw, is this game bundled with Wii anywhere?
Wii fit 1M
------------
= 20.7 M

Problem is, there was a Mario game bundled with N64. And probably tons of other bundles. Nintendo are cheaters.

@fast/oyv---sorry i wasnt being clearer

and what is holding them back form HD--the graphics card?

Wii third place in this list with +100 million sold.

@ Slime

But then we would have to take away MotorStorm, Forza, Resistance and so on, since we do not know how much of their sales are pack ins.

Almost all consoles have had a lot of pack-ins, they have to be counted.

Oh wait, you meant the Japan thing, Wii Sports isn't bundled in Japan, so it is correct.

EDIT: That was in another thread, I believe.

nope

56% of hdtv owners don't hook hd content to it

people buy hdtvs because they are flat and can hang on a wall and have big screens
