The wii will be the most sought after product this christmas anybody who thinks otherwise is a delusional fanboy or thinks the DS will come out on top.

But to my point the wii sells consistantly over 400k units a month in america; which by all accounts is the amount they are shipping and as many as they make. But they have the potential to move hugh amounts of units in the next 4 months. But they may be stuck with the 400k figure.

My theory is that the may actually have stockpiles for christmas but i don't know.

Any thoughts?

lol, I like part where you say 'anbody who thinks otherwise is a delusional fanboy,' and 'any thoughts'? Well seeing as no one can disagree with you without some abuse its a little difficult to add my thoughts.

Point taken I just didn't want this to be the 360 or the PS3 will sell more based on stupid flawed logic thread.

Hehe. I don't think the fact the 360 has some of it's biggest titles coming out over the next few months can be ignored. I'd expect 360 do quite well.

Of coarse the 360 will do well its def my favourite console but the wii is another league when it comes to moving hardware.

Another question would be is it smart to pick up an extra one now...To resell it latter on EBAY to get enough money to get a PS3

I am asking a lot of questions out of you guy. Don't you think?

People, from fanboys to overpaid analyst, have been predicting the Wii's doom and slow down since before the Wii launched. There's no slow up in sales now, and with Mario Galaxy, Brawl, and the casual Mario & Sonic, there's no reason to think Wii sales will slow up or lack an increase of sales during the holidays.

People keep adding to the pile and Wii sales keep proving them wrong. It's quite hilarious, especially here in System Wars where people can't grasp the concept that there are a lot of gamers out there of all shapes and sizes who don't salivate at patch wearing soldiers running around grabbing guards in the bal*s or a futuristic marine shooting aliens brains out.
