Forums - Nintendo - Patchter thinks wii fit will not sell 10 million units,

What does he know anyway. He said in a Gametrailers interview that he doesn't even play games that much. Wii Fit will hit 10 million worldwide and I am sure of that.

I agree with Patcher on this one. Well maybe I'd up GTA4 to 18 mil though.



I'm back...

He talks if 10 millions were poor sales for Wii fit
I think it could end with 2-2.5 lifetime on Japan

it already has 1.7mil in 16 weeks and still sells at 67% attach rate (lowest so far this year) to wiis

how is it only gonna end up at 2mil or 2.5mil?  it'll hit 2mil in Japan by the time it launches in US (May) and it'll hit over 3mil in Japan by end of holiday season, prolly more



Bets:Missed by 420k I bet leo-j vg$500 that wii will sell 31 million by 7/31/08.  Sorry, I don't think he has enough vg$ to make it with all of u that wish you could. Hit, with room to spare I bet kingofwale a 1-week ban that wii Americas ltd sales>360 Americas ltd sales as of the numbers for week ending 7/05/08 (using vgchartz homepage #s)

Predictions:

Wii will sell 18-20mil by 12/31/07  CHECKWii will sell 45mil+ WW by 12/31/08Wii will surpass PS2 sales WW by 11/17/11 (5yr anniversary)Wii Fit will hit 12mil sales in 2009MKWii+SSBB+Wii Fit+SMG > 50 mil sales by 2010 > gta4+mgs+gt5+ff13+haze+lbp

I think in Japan you can compare Wii Fit quite well with Wii Sports which was released one year earlier. Wii Sports hit 2.7 million by the end of 2007, and Wii Fit is currently tracking 40 % higer than Wii Sports, so it can probably hit 3.5 million by the end of 2008 -- when Nintendo are going to release their next ubercasual title. I wonder if Miyamoto made Wii Music big enough to fill those footprints or if they have something else up their sleeves?



Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.

I know that I can't wait for Wii music.

Im sure he says by the end of the year 360 will sell 20-25mil and PS3 half as many. That would make year end PS3 sales at only 10-12.5 million..



GTA4 won't sell that much. And I don't think Wii-Fit will sell 10 mil either.



I think WiiFit will sell unlike anything before. I dont mean that in a OMGZ itS da megaton seller!1!! way, I mean it in an 'it's an unprecedented product' way. It really is a wild card. If Nintendo can convince the WiiSPorts people to go out and by another game then it could be astronomical, probably > 50% attach. At this moment that would be about 3M in Japan, 3.5M in Europe, and 5M in America, well over 10M WW. Nintendo could also do a WiiFit bundle to take the baton from WiiSports and achieve even greater sales for WiiFit. But that is all hypothetical, Patcher could just as easily be.... *gulp* right. (there's something I never imagined saying.)
