I have been thinking a bit about John's 240million Wii consoles thread and realized that yes he could in fact be very close to the final number and I'll give some reason's to back him up on it.
1. The Wii will be the first console during it's 5 year stint to drop way below 100$ making it a true mass market product. (I expect Nintendo is aiming for a 50$ console and not the 99$ console people expect them to be after).

That's a really great post! You did a lot of interesting speculation and tied together many different thoughts that have been floating around on the forum in the past few months. No one knows exactly what the future holds but this will be a nice post to refer back to a year from now, and further... Thanks! |
Thanks! I've gone back and re-read some older speeches from Nintendo and they talked about a lot of the things I listed but not all at once. I believe this is their plan of attack and they layed it out for everyone to see. Each time we hear them speak about the Blue ocean, they are actually lecturing other developers to listen up. To most of us it seems rather boring, but I really don't think they are trying to address us at all. They have the plan and as long as they don't go up on stage and start mouthing off, they are fine.
Anyone notice FASA fell off the map yesterday? They bet the bank on Shadowrun and now pay the price. How many others will have this happen to them before they wisen up?
