So quite straight forward, do you think the wii can pass the original playstation?



Around the Network

The consumer is going to confuse the new Wii mini as the Wii U and unintentionally cause Wii sales to pass the playstation one.



Noo WAY!

The Wii has lost its prime, and the Wii Mini has only sold an embarrassing 200K units.



Yes. Probably!

Well it will just be east. It is 3.11 million away and hasn't even been dropped to $99 the sweet price.

It needs 3.5m actually (unless you're talking shipments? - not sure where they're at)

When Wii dropped to $149, it did almost nothing to slow down the decline. Look at its weekly sales. Less than 20k per week and dropping. Let's be generous and give it 30k/week on average when taking the holiday season into account. This would mean Wii could sell ~1.5m this year. Next year, it would drop again to ~15k per week or so. It should then sell ~800k. This gives us 2.3m in the next two years. From then, Wii is practically dead but might manage another 500k or so, which still gives us
