wii is ALREADY breaking DS's records so how can you have DS LTD >>> Wii LTD

 

 So which do you see? DS selling less than 170M, or Wii selling over 170M?

Over 15M Japan?

70M Americas?

60M WE?

Òr over 15M EE + Others?

Regionally for DS I see:

60 Million Others + 60 Million NA + 30 Million Japan (very rough guess)

as I said EU + NA numbers can go up if the Dsi is successful.

______

For Wii I see --- 80 Million NA + 80 Million EU + 17 Million Japan

Japan numbers can go up IF DQX & MH3 provide not a bump but maybe sustained sales.

_____

these are really rounded & rough figures though

No, Wii will sell 250-320 million, with PS3 and 360 combining for less than 100 million, so no



 

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)

My predictions are the following, and quite reasonable IMO.

Wii = 155 million
Ps3 = 80 million
X360 = 45-50 million
DS = 150-160 million
Psp = 65 million
