Wait...so you're telling me the North Koreans who already have the nukes now have the wii? They will probably figure out how to control those nuke with a Wii mote...and then we're screwed...

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

Also, doubt it will launch in North Korea...but you never know which is why I gave N. Korea stats...the thing about North Korea though is that GDP per capita is $1500/year so its not like its got millions more middle class people.


 NK doesn't have a middle class.

I predict 50k

really don't know much about the korean market or even how many wii's will be available at launch. i'll go conservative on this and say.....55k



quarashi on 14 April 2008

47k. I think that will be right.



Hi, this is Vince with Shamwow.

WIth a one year and a half hype around the world, I will predict a little bit higher. I'll go with 200k first week, with stocks of 300K



Wii Code: 4819-7684-2396-4558

I'm not sure about an exact number, but let me go and say you guys are being way too generous. Some of those numbers Nintendo would be lucky to get as LTD in Korea. People actually throwing around the name of North Korea need to go read the world news.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

 And people who talk about north koreans controlling nukes with wii motes shouldnt be taken seriously.
