VGChartz Wii Hardware data for the period 13th Jul 2008 to 03rd Jan 2009: 14,726,946

So, do I think that the Wii will sell another 9 million units this year?  Easily.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its already having a weaker year than last year and its still falling so directly comparing might not yield much relevant info. But I do think it'll clear 9 million more without much difficulty, yes.

Nintendo's projections are on the fiscal year calendar (April 01 - March 31) so we have no way to know exactly what they project for Jan 01, 2010.

I will post a youtube video of me eating a shoe if the Wii doesn't reach 60 million.

And I raise you that if the Wii doesn't hit 65M, everyone on VGC will eat a shoe. We will have a mass shoe eating contest, too.



The Wii will hit 60 million, that is an inevitability. If it doesn't I shall follow in the steps of the great Stan Laurel and eat a bowler hat.

From April 01, 2009 to March 31, 2010 Nintendo projects to ship 26 million units.   Almost unchanged from the previous year's projection of 25.95 million.

lol, nintendo will be selling average 1mln consoles every week during december. additional 3-3.5mln wiis will be sold from now until december.

Yeah and then it will be adjusted in January as last year :)

If sony/MS cut prices and Nintendo doesn't it won't reach 60M.




How come? Even if they cut the prices, PS360 still doesn't have the games Wii has, which is what is driving Wii sales. It's been a really long while since Wii was the cheapest of the three.

Don't pay him any mind, he just likes to do this.

Yes my hatefull anti wii predictions are never right:

for example i said WSR won't bring big hardware boost and obviously i was wrong which you can check observing Japan numbers.

 

Also what games ?

WSR which appeals to the crowd who loved WS and already bought the console ?

WiiFit plus which appeals to the crowd who liked Wii Fit and already bought the console ?

New Mario which appeals to the people who like Mario games and already replaced their gamecubes with Wii ?

 

All those Nintendo games will sell tons but they are not going to move a lot of hardware.

I don't see Nintendo getting high sales without price drop.
