Forums - Sales - How Many 1m Selling Weeks (if at all) Will Wii have this Holiday Season?

Arius Dion on 19 November 2009

Pretty simple question. Have at it.



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'ma say 'one'. But it will still kill the competition the rest of the weeks.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

At least two, probably three and possibly four.

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)

I'm going with three.

Four is plausible though.

Well the numbers for next week should be between 600-800K, due to NSMB and holiday trends, and the week after between 700K-1million due to Black Friday

I say two, but possibly more. I think two is the most likely though.

edit: damnit, forgot we haven't had black friday yet, so I'm gonna change that 2 to 3



Mummelmann on 19 November 2009

I'd say two, week 49 and 50 is my guess.



kopstudent89 on 19 November 2009

3
last year it was 3 also?



kopstudent89 on 19 November 2009

wow 5! i'd still say 3 though, though maybe the week after black friday will manage a million since japan numbers for NSMB week can help. 4 is plausable
