Frankly I think all the consoles are probably overestimated by VGC. At least the Wii and PS3 probably are.

It's not easy to estimate sales in a week like this, with crazy promotions everywhere and different demographics buying consoles than during the rest of the year.

HOW is DS still doing this?!

Just take this to be about the DS instead of Godzilla.

But actually, I don't think the DS's numbers are being given enough attention here. Has any piece of hardware ever sold over a million in the US alone on Black Friday week?

That's assuming that PS3 is near 500K, if this is true, and Wii was overtracked it could mean everything was overtracked, we'll have to see what ioi says, he will make the final decision

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)
