[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Blame Nintendo for not producing enough Wiis tbh... [/ QUOTE ] A good friend of mine is senior LP at a Best Buy, they have 60+ Wii's sitting in the back, Nintendo isn't letting them put any more out til December 2nd. They're producing enough I would imagine they're just keeping the demand hot. [/ QUOTE ] That is a complete lie. Nintendo doesn't regulate street dates after initial launch. Either best buy is saving them or your friend is jerking you around. [/ QUOTE ] best buy is saving them for sunday so it can go in their ad...most of the big chains do this with wiis since they can't keep them in stock even during the week, so they use them as an advertising vehicle to drive traffic to the store on the weekend |

Re: wii selling for $400+ again on ebay
since i've been doing the research and thinking about the console sales, i'll go ahead and make my predictions:
wii will sell 18-20mil by 12/31/07 wii will sell 45mil by 12/31/08 wii will sell 75mil by 12/31/09 wii will sell 105mil by 12/31/10 wii will outsell ps2 before it's 5th year anniversary (11/17/11) |

Re: wii selling for $400+ again on ebay
Are you factoring in how well PS2 still sells?

Re: wii selling for $400+ again on ebay
yeah; i think ps2 will end up around 135-140mil when it's done, with maybe 90mil unique buyers (rest of sales are 2nd/3rd/4th/etc after 1st broke)

Re: wii selling for $400+ again on ebay
Are you seriously trying to claim the PS2 has a 35% failure rate?
