PS3 continues to outsell 360 and wii combined, and has for a long time. PS4 will be approaching 50% by the end of the holidays, we'll see.

Actually, last week was the first time it outsold them combined for 2.5 months.


No it wasn't. Also happened 19th July and 7th June

Those are within a margin of error as being a statistical tie.   You can't approach 50% market share with a 2.6 million deficit on spradic 5,000 per week wins.   That would take 10 years.   To say nothing the fact that aside from those 2 statistical ties, it didn't acheive 50% share for the week during those 2.5 months...meaning it lost ground.   PS4 had a much bigger market share 2.5 months ago than it does today.


No. Just no. It was at 43% when you posted, now it's at 45(probably higher) It wasn't higher, let alone much higher than 43% in May. And it's gaining ground, not losing.

sony needs to outsell xbox one + wii u by 30m units

 


you mean both combined by 30M?

"That means the PS4 will have to outsell xbone and wii u combined by 26 million for the 8th gen"

PS4 will do that easily.

PS4 will sell ~100M, Xbone ~40M, Wii U less than 20M

you forget to put in your chart all the hardware, nintendo is both home console and handheld console busines, take that in consideration and sony is never going to pass nintendo on sold hardware.

He didn't say handhelds....he said home consoles. He would have specified that handhelds included if he wanted to add it.
