Wow, melbye, that was a bold prediction.

I'm going to have to go with May 2009, week ending the 15th.

If I remember correctly, Nintendo said they were going to ship 49 million wii by the end of this fiscal year, and I think that the supply issues will have been worked out by then, so a month and a half after that sounds about right to me.

This is invisible text!

True, but after their shipment estimation they announced that production will be upped to 2.4 million per month by august. If they sell all that they'll at least end up with around 2 million more units shipped by end March 2009.

Not to mention there is a possibility they actually increase production again...that just sounds insane to think about when you consider where they are now...

Chazz: Yeah. You know when things are so crazy, you get your thoughts trapped, like in a bottle.
