Here's to 48.2 by the end of the week.

For that to happen, the Wii will have to outsell the PS360 combined by about 100k in North america + Japan. More, if you actually want it it to go over 48.20% (and not over 48.151%, which is when VGChartz shows 48.2%). We'll see if that happens. Unlikely, but possible.

This, of course, is if there are no more adjustments this week.

EDIT: It would be around 175k to get a true 48.2%

Why would it matter if it were a "true" 48.2% when its not currently a "true" 48.1%?

if it reaches 45 million, which is doable (only needs to sell about 1.2 million a wek for the rest of the year), then it will probably break the 50% barrier, it's unlikely that Ps3 and 360 will get more than 5 million more for the year combined

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
