The Wii might top 50%.


Hopefully he was joking. Because otherwise, the whole thing is just a one big FAIL.
Care to elaborate on how the Wii could possibly drop below 40% this year?
I ran the numbers. If the Wii sold half of its 2008 total in 2009, and the PS3/360 each saw a 50% YoY increase. (12.6M Wii, 17.2M 360, 15.8M PS3) The year end total for the Wii would still be 42%. (57M Wii, 44.5M 460, 35.2M PS3)
Under this scenario (50% increase for PS360 sales in 2009), Wii sales would need to drop 70% to reach your prediction.
No offense, but it sounds like you are just making up numbers without regard to facts.
| Tremble said: - High popular games coming to HD console: RE5, SFIV, KZ2, Infamous, Halo wars, FFXIII demo and yakuza, just to name a few. No wii game could match that. - PS3 will increase its sales in japan: 2008's been a low year for the PS3, 2009 should be much better. Yakuza 3, FFXIII and GT5 will sell tons of consoles. - Price: wii has always been afordable, a price cut wouldn't have a big impact. The PS3 and the 360 Elite, on the other hand, could get a big boost if there were a price cut, those consoles/sku are still expensive. - No zelda, mario or metroid this year: last year wiifit, SSMB and MK gave the console a huge boost. There's still no zelda/mario/metroid game announced for this year. - Economic crisis: yes, once again, THE crisis! Will probably hit more the wii than the other two. My prediction: Wii will never reach the 50% mark, could even be below 40% by the end of this year. |
Wow... there's just so much wrong with this post, Tremble. Really.

Either that or Pythagoras himself (remember "Ipse dixit"?
), who can tell? 
This looks like one of those topics in which the topic starter comes, craps on a thread and then leaves.
Iwata sais no more stock piling of Wii's in other words what they produce is what will be on the Market, it should take around 2 months from his mouth for us to see the results of that.
Nintendo lowered profit expectations and not hardware sales expectations, the Yen has nothing to do with the ammount of Wii's sold.
If were talking about units then Wii's projected units sold WW is already 4% higher than the HDtwins, that means by May we should see Wii with 52% market share.
Unless I misunderstood what Iwata was saying.
I'm Unamerica and you can too.
The Official Huge Monster Hunter Thread:
Can someone PLEASE explain to me what is going on with VGC's numbers on Wii's market share? I remember crearly that Wii's market share was increasing at a constante rate and at one point it was at 49.6%.
But, now, it has dropped to 48% and I don't understand how can that be, if the Wii has greater sales than the other two consoles EVERY WEEK. Shouldn't it keep going up in market share? how come it is dropping?
PLEASE EXPLAIN
Chuck Norris can kill two stones with one bird.
RE5 will kill the Wii. GTA4 might have failed to do so, but 5 > 4.
