Wii will reach 10m before PS3 reaches 5m. We're probably looking at 30k vs 15k this week in Japan but from next week onwards (with the exception of FFXIII release week) Wii should be ahead on a weekly basis and will therefore sell-through 1.5m quicker, expecially over the holidays where Wii sales should be probably twice PS3 sales.


ioi you were right all the long while Zorro was sure PS3 would win.

Nevertheless, if Zorro really is Crazzy, he was more accurate and sober than ever before.

About Wii and Mario, I never believed Wii haters and doomsayers, nevertheless I was quite sure PS3 could win this little race, but instead the boost given by NSMBW was so strong to overturn the situation and furtherly better the already good opinion I had on Wii's strength, it could reach 90M WW before this year's end.

 

Haha there is no if, ZorroX was Crazzyman, I know on good authority cause I checked the IPs myself

As for this topic I never posted in it before but now it's pretty obvious how this is gonna play out, and yet another one of Crazzyman's CRAZZY (though this less crazzy than the rest) will fail, logic and reason win at the end of the day again!

Funny to read old posts..hindsight huh?



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

I'm almost tempted to suggest we unpermaban Crazzy/Zorro just to get his reaction. I'm sure he's watching.

I'm pretty sure he's not after getting IP banned

Browsing through earlier posters of this thread is interesting, a lot of people say Wii would win due to NSMBwii and price cut but the people who said PS3 would win said, FFXIII would make PS3 proud but PS3 was above Wii only once after a while due to FFXIII but after that wii has been on top ever since. Thanks t the plumber. I wonder what Zorro will be thinking now.

And a few other words I suppose.  Where's Violent? he used to make a sales table each week for this, but now he's off.

Yes, my point is that if you look at  http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=88468&page=1 , he managed to be quite accurate some weeks, for one console or the other, and overall he was a lot less Crazzy than usual anyway. ioi was a lot better at predicting NSMBW boost and its remarkable legs on HW too, though.
