This Generation.....

Wont make 100mil 6 10.71%
 
100mil+ 8 14.29%
 
120mil+ 13 23.21%
 
140mil+ 9 16.07%
 
160mil+ 10 17.86%
 
180mil+ 3 5.36%
 
200mil+ 7 12.50%
 
Total:56

Can't say because as of now I can't predict the Vita at all. I still feel like I know next to nothing about that thing other than it being expensive and has yet to announce or release a system seller.

Vita has to help it before I can make this prediction.

This is the case wit alot f predictions! Will sony bomb it and make 10mil sales? Will it pick up and do average 20-30mil? Will it pick up like PS3 did and get 50mil+? All i know is in 2012 it didn't get that much over 3.5mil. This year looks decent in the first half even with a price drop the earlist it will get is End of Feb! Also 3DS will have a great year especially Japan and if They want to release games in the second half (reveal them E3) then the'll surely lose cuz 3DS will have LM DM out, AC out, Pokemon XY will murder all comp holidays, and lets not count out a new game for holidays from Nintendo most likely revealed at E3, maybe have two like last year (Paper Mario + NSMB2



3DS: 85

I got too many bets and i want to add a pokemon bet to make it 4 so i'll get ya for next year if you still believe in your own prediction lol



I see the 3DS ending around the original GameBoy's numbers. So that'd be 120m. 3DS is doing way too good, and it's unlikely it's life will be cut short by a contender console like the equally good performing GBA was. Still, even if it's doing above DS numbers now, it's hard to see the 3DS keeping pace with it all generation long. DS's peak was too high for that, and it just kept going tremendously. So, 120m it is.

For Vita, I don't see it doing better than GamCube/XBox numbers. Games haven't saved it it seems, and it still does below Dreamcast numbers I believe. Given that the Dreamcast was terminated prematurely and the PSVita's likely won't, it's sales will end around 25m. Unless a miracle happens, or they keep it alive for three generations.

Any of the newly announced consoles won't have relevant sales.

120+25 = 145m.

Nintendo 3DS: 90-105 million

Playstation Vita: 35-50 million


Can't wait until I'm 30 years old and finally get to know how accurate my prediction is.

LOL. I know the feel bro! 

I'd say:

3DS: 70-85 mil 

PSV: 15-25 mil at this pace. If it does get a pricecut soon with a proper lineup, then 25-40 mil
