Forums - Sales - Now Do You Think Nintendo Will Reach 50% Market?

lol @ old predictions. I still stand by my prediction of July, 2009. (made in another thread I think)



Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

I predicted Wii would reach 50-55% marketshare by end of '08 last year (see my other predictions under my profile if you like). I still stand by that.



 

i think that they can get 50% but no higher and i think it will start to drop once wii peaks out



I think that it will.



It will eventually



Well one day as they were throwing paper balls at me, i stabbed one of the fat bullys in the eye with a pencil and used his body to manuever through the others as i pelted rocks at them one by one, soon after i threw each and every one of their bodies off a building, and put their heads on staffs, to show the world.

Hitting 50% is one thing - staying there is another.

I still think they will hit 50% before the holidays, go under 50% during the holidays - then probably rise back up post-Xmas.

And in how long? I've only seen the Wii go down in sales likE ONCE, in terms of percentage, and it was 0,1% lol.

I believe it will reach 50% this year, during the Holliday season.

I think it will happen once, and once only (also, it won't go below 50% again). I don't see it happening before the holidays (February 2009 was my prediction).

3 months to go until November. Current gap is 4.26m. That's 1.42m per month if it happens before November, or more than 300k gap per week. Not realistic at all, considering the Wii doesn't even sell much more than 300k, let alone outselling PS3+360 by that amount (outside holidays of course).

I think it is now very very clearly a question of "when" and not a question of "if". I can't for the life of me see anyway it won't reach 50%. PS360 fans can go on and on about when their console gets a price cut but they for some reason ignore the fact that we can get a price cut just as easily and Wii is much more capable of hitting the $200 mass market price. So I have dispelled with the "if". The "when" - I will say about March next year.

Of, course. It has to happen by the end of this year or early next year or it won't happen at all.

I disagree. Thing is the Wii wont peak, or at least never as hard as Sony and Microsoft will. Like the PS2 era, Microsoft and Sony will slow down but the Wii wont. Then, it can get 50%.
