Yadda yadda, we know the Wii was a beast in its first three years, but its problem was that it dropped like a rock after that, so any comparisons this early in on will give an edge to the Wii. However I think PS4+XBO will do more in nov+dec than the Wii did, and might be ahead for the year too.

The thread is about Second year VS second year, not lifetime, of course XB1+PS4 will sell more than 42 million.

That said, i agreed with Nov+Dec, for the year i believe One will sell 4.8 million and PS4 5 million, so, a total of around 9.8 million or so.

And remember, there is no way for believe that even PS4 or XBO can't dropped like a rock...

What playstation console dropped like a rock? If we're going by historical evidence Playstation and Xbox won't drop. Xbox'll drop when NextBox comes out but they go pretty strong throughout the generation.

Historical, PS3 has sold for the firsts 6 month of 2008 more than double of the firsts 6 month of 2007, and PS4 is down YOY for the firts 6 months of 2015, and is also outsold by PS3.

And now you can say "But pricedrop!!!!!!!" or other thing you want, fact remain the history is already change.

... with the help of big price cuts in the second half of 2007 and the release of the highly acclaimed bestsellers GTA 4 (MetaScore 98) and MGS 4 (MetaScore 94).

And the PS4 got Batman with the massive bundle, Mortal Kombat, The Withcer, and BloodBorne+The Order.

Pricedrop in 2007? this is 2008.....

We are talking about the PS3 improvement in the first half year 2008 compared to PS3 in the first half year 2007, not compared to PS4!

And the pricecuts of second half 2007 were not temporary, the PS3 was much cheaper in in the first half year 2008 than in the first half of 2007.

But if you want to compare the first half of 2008 PS3 with the first half of 2015 PS4: even the Batman Arkham + Witcher series are much smaller IPs than GTA or MGS, Mortal Kombat is quite irrelevant nowadays and Bloodborne + The Order are new IPs. The PS3 also had DMC4, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Burnout Paradise, GRID and Battlefield Bad Company in that time frame... but all of them together don't have the impact of a GTA or an exclusive MGS.
