if the Wii was marketed in developing economies it would reach that figure
it will do around 110m

Nice! There are several threads that need to be necro'd from this era.

To be fair, Nintendo dropped the ball big time with the hardware on the Wii. The difference between the Wii and X360/PS3 was so vast, developers didn't want to re-create their titles for the Wii, especially when the X360/PS3 had a userbase that was similar to where the Wii was, and eventually surpassed the Wii by pretty large numbers.

Had Nintendo of put more into the hardware, it could have sold 150 million or more. But I think all of those anti-hardware threads about the Wii ended up coming true.

Wow this thread was filled with some of the most rediculous horrible predictions Ive ever seen.

There were people who honestly thought Wii would sell 200 million and the 360 not even 30 million.....

The walking dead thread lol lol lol

THIS, those predictions were always crazy and made no sense. His 2nd point is wrong IMHO, 3rd parties were not going to support WIi in droves period because a lot of the engines running on the HDs which people forgot 360 was already out a whole year before cant even run on Wii without heavy modding if at all. What was funnier is that some people tried to explain that and were labeled as Ninty haters. Now that dont seem so crazy. Another thing is the controller IMHO if they put more power into that, it would have served them better.

Once this thing is $99.99, you never know.

Fads are fads.

Here we are almost a gen later, the Wii didn't save gaming, the PS3 sold over 5 million lifetime, MikeB disappeared from the Internet, and I think Crazzyman should be unbanned.

Holy crap, this thread is so much fun. As I have been warned calling some fans out, I just say that some fans from this thread made some really bad predictions.

Also.

BINGO!
