I predict VGC predictors are gonna suck this year

Still, Sony's conference could shake things up if it ever starts!

I'm surprised I'm highest for the Wii, low expectations this year?

Says from 29 nov to jan 3, I'm assuming it'll rise like every year.

Whats up with TheSources prediction for the 360?

That is a terrible prediction IMO he honestly believes it will sell less this year than last year despite the launch of Halo Reach, Kinect, a new Slim version of the console, plus big name games like COD Black Ops?

lol

I'm surprised that one of the main analysts of this site has that prediction. It's Patcheresque.

I'm surprised so many people are picking the wii to easily sell the most. I think it will be close between all 3 consoles. Im picking the wii to sell the least due to it having the weakest software lineup of the three.

Last christmas the wii was the only motion controlled console this year all 3 will have it, not to mention in December the Xbox360 will still be still be seeing the initial hype from the natal launch in November.

All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion

Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

July 2009 daveJ said: True the wii has a large lead now but by 2017 the most likely result will be 1. ps3 2. xbox360 3. wii <-- wii's successor launched in 2011 effectively killing sales of the wii

2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales
