I'm sure that by the end of next year the wii will have 50 percent of the market share.

No it won't.

Proof is in the pudding.

EDIT: feh

I posted my feelings about this in another thread just today but I'll make this a quick post and say that I don't think the Wii will hit 50% market share. Or if it does somehow, it won't hold that percentage for the generation. I expect the Wii too get about 45%, PS3 with 30% and the 360 will have 25%.

This weeks numbers up.

Yes, it should be 28 Days...

EDIT: Also, good work on the thread. It won't stop people from posting new threads, but this will at least give me some raw numbers to look at! ^_^

Numbers for the Week ending the 08th of November 2008 are up, excluding a minor adjustment of the PS3. It's so tiny I won't bother. All the numbers are right, it's just that the adjustment doesn't show...

This week Wii gained .066% marketshare, and it would at this pace take 56 week for it to reach 50% marketshare.

Numbers for the Week ending the 15th of November 2008 are up, including all adjustments this time :)

This week Wii gained .109% marketshare, and it would at this pace take 28 week (again!) for it to reach 50% marketshare.

Including adjustments, the Wii has gained a total of 691,796 units during the last 4 weeks, putting the avarage (including adjustments) at 172,949 units per week. This would put the wii on track to overtake the PS360 combined in 19 more weeks.

Naturally, this number is very skewed since the Wii has not outsold the PS360 by that much since I started measuring.

In terms of marketshare percentage, the Wii has gained a total of 0.617%

I'll put all of this up in a spreadsheet soon, so calculations will go a lot easier. For now, I do it all by hand, and hence I tend to be lazy and only do the simple calculations. When I've done the spreadsheet I'll give a picture of how it would look without adjustments.

Yet another week of Wii closing the gap.

The gap is now below 3 million!

If it keeps going like this, Wii will reach 50% in another 16 weeks, since it's closing the gap at an amazing 185k per week over the last 5 weeks.
