Forums - Nintendo - Wii to sell 100+million units by next march

"Fils-Aime predicted that by the end of fiscal year next march the Wii would grow to over 100 million units." Quote from IGN.

How will Nintendo do this at current production levels, or even increased levels that are to happen this month?

Or did IGN miss-quote Reggie?

 

What do you think???

edit: IGN did misquote. Turns out it was for the DS.....

It was a misquote by IGN.

there is just no way the wii is gonna do dat, as great as it is, it can not do dat, so he was probably talking about the ds.



                 


 

Not going to happen; they won't be able to make that many in that short a time span. They'll get something of a boost when the next factory comes online, (not the one they recently announced but the one after that), but it won't be enough.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
