This thread is simply a response to Crazzy's thread.


The differences:
1) PS2 cost 299$ in 2001 for whole year, Wii cost 250$ for now.

PS2 January 07th - Wii January 06th
Total - 247k <> Total - 522K

PS2 vs Wii = - 275K

PS2 January 14th - Wii January 13th
Total - 150k <> Total - 203K
PS2 vs Wii = - 328K

PS2 January 21th - Wii January 20th
Total - 136k <> Total - 258K
PS2 vs Wii = -450K

PS2 January 28th - Wii January 27th
Total - 177k <> Total - 313K
.
PS2 vs Wii= - 586K

PS2 February 04th - Wii February 03rd
Total - 185k <> Total - 343K

PS2 vs Wii = - 744K

PS2 February 11th - Wii February 10th
Total - 166k <> Total - 438K

PS2 vs Wii = -1016K

PS2 February 18th - Wii February 17th

Total - 163k <> Total - 235K

PS2 vs Wii = -1088K

PS2 February 25th - Wii February 24th

Total - 188k <> Total - 242K
PS2 vs Wii =  - 1142K

PS2 March 04th - Wii March 02nd
Total - 213k <> Total - 375K

PS2 vs Wii= - 1304

This means:

Wii sold 1304K more than Ps3 in 2 months 

Ps2 sold 1625, and Wii 2929K.

That means, Wii sold 80% more than Ps2. And since this for some insanely odd reason will keep going in %, the Wii will sell 28.8M this year. This is done by Crazzy's logic.


But of course, Wii won't keep the same % above Ps2. Here is the total sales for Ps2 the following months.  

Total Ps2 sales from 3rd March 2001 to 31st March 2001: 1225K. 

If the Wii were to continue selling 80% above, it would have to sell 2205K.

It will probably sell about 500K less than this.

7th April to 5th May: 1056K

To keep 80%: 1900K

Selling this much is possible, but 100K less is likely.

14th April to 12th May: 1021K

To keep 80%: 1837K

The Wii could very well sell this much.

19th May to 16th June: 817K

To keep 80%: 1470K

The Wii should have no problem at all selling this much.

23rd June to 21st July: 1379K

To keep 80%: 2482K

The Wii does not stand a change at selling this much. 600K less minimum.

28th July to 25th August: 1226K

To keep 80%: 2206K

The Wii does not stand a change at 2206. 400K less minimum.

1st September to 6th October: 1218K

To keep 80%: 2192K

The Wii will sell 300K less minimum.

13th October to 17th November: 1860K

To keep 80%: 3348K

The Wii is heaps away from selling that much.

24th November to 29th December: 5596K.

To keep 80% 10 072K

There is no way in hell the Wii can be close to matchin that.


But what does this mean?

Well, the Wii doesn't stand a change at keeping a rate of 80% above Ps3.

That also means, that if the Ps3 has to sell more than 56% of the Wii, to be even close to matchin the Ps2. As a matter of fact, it will still be far away.

If there are any mistakes, or anything that should be added, post it, and I'll add it.

Post a link, thanks

I apologize to the poster above me, for that I could say such horrible things as I said about him. I take full responsibilty.

Pepperoni is the best.

Awgadd that looks good man! 'flies down to cook himself some pizza'

^^^ Fuck, now I'm hungry for pizza.

Hey, Oyvoyvoyv,

Chill, man. Kenzomatic might have meant a link to Crazzy's thread you are referring to.

ZOMG BABIES!

I'd love to have a pizza myself.

Probably not pepperoni, though. It tends to give me heartburn...
Send me a slice when you're done, Mummel!

Was this thread made only to flame Crazzyman, or does it actually have a real purpose? I get the feeling you're just trying to show up another member, then pass it off as a joke so the mods let you get away with it. I've seen a lot of that happening as of late.

If you made this thread to actually discuss this data, here's what I have to say:


The Wii selling 28m consoles this year is very possible.

Anyone who doesn't acknowledge that is a fool. The Nintendo Wii, at this state in it's life, is selling unlike anything we have seen, and it hasn't even hit it's prime yet. The console was able to sell over 20m units in it's first year. I expected to increase this year due to demand being just as strong and supply being better. There are also flagship games like Wii Fit and Brawl. The Wii will at least get close to putting up those numbers.
