It's a long read but I defo agree with some of his points.

Though his predictions at the end are.... slightly high to say the least.

I suggest everybody read it.

That combined with the conspiracy title gave me a good laugh.

Will read.

Wow, that was a big read, but it was worth it. I like the way this guy thinks, he's kinda scary, but he's got a good business sense (maybe?) like Iwata. Not really sure about the "Wii U being everybody's console," but we'll see I guess.

His predictions seem crazy though.

12 mil by end of  this year?

What games are gonna magically appear to make this happen?

Yeah, the 12mil part seems impossible, but who knows? Maybe with a price cut and Mario 3D World releasing earlier than expected (yes, I know that NEVER happens with Nintendo) then MAYBE they could reach 12mil?

His sales estimates are ridiculous. The highest selling video game system of all time, the Nintendo DS, sold 151 million units in its lifetime. He is saying the Wii U will get 240 million units sold in its lifetime. That is just ridiculous. Otherwise, it was a good read.

Haha well that was definitely fun to read. He should be a writer. Gotta call BS on the phonetics he brought up, and the sales figures. No way 12mil by end of the year unless they either do a price drop, release an extra game early, or both.

Bayo 2 doesn't come out this year.
And although those games are gonna be great they aren't gonna boost sales to 12 mil.

Even if we add windwaker hd in there sales are still not gonna hit 12 mil.
It's absurd

That's definitely an interesting why to look at it. Can't wait to read what 3Dude thinks. What do I think? Not sure. Certainly seems plausible. Those numbers are a bit out there though. I'm thinking 8-10 million by the end of this year with 30ish million the next.

Some people always have a cellphone on them. I'm so awesome I always have a 3DS.

Guys, this is the dude that predicted that the Wii would sell over 80 mil units and would sell more than the HD Twins while everyone was laughing at him.

Yeah, this is true.

But you cant win em all.

But still, if this guy somehow ends up even close.... I will be there to eat at the massive crow buffet that will surely ensue.

His predictions are ludicrous. I'm guessing 30 million lifetime, and in last place

Ds is highest selling handheld. PS2 is highest selling console, 155 million

Point still stands though: if the highest selling console of all time ended at 155 million, then there is no way the Wii U will ever reach 240 million.

It's mostly the 3rd party comments that intrigues me. Let's face it, 3rd parties have gotten used to the lax policies given to them by MS and Sony and they can't STAND Nintendo quality assurance. They know they can't be lazy as well as the fact that they'd inevitably be 2nd string on Nintendo's systems as opposed to MS or Sony. Though of course that's mostly Western 3rd parties that do that. There's some definite ego issues when it comes to 3rd parties and Nintendo.
