Hmm, hard to say.

Wii: 100-110 million, leaning against the upper part of those numbers.

360: 60 million.

PS3: This one is really tough, no one knows the impact of slim, lower price and so forth but I don't think we'll see it much above 60 million at any rate, if it ever reaches 60 that is.
I'll say 55.

Wii: 120 million to 140 million

360:70 million to 80 million

PS3: 30 million to 40 million

How much do you hate the ps3?

30 to 40m in its life time thats a joke,    it will do double that stop hating on the best console ever created in history.

Agree

 

Disagree

 

 

The ps3 is also a ps2 and a ps1 all in one,  thats what makes it the best console in history

....You can do the same with the wii it has a Gamecube, NES, SNES, N64, Arcade, Commodore 64, NEOGEO, Sega Genesis, Sega Master System and TurboGrafx 16. So please don't say it as a fact...

PS3 is still better

I don't hate it, I'm just being honest. Saying I hate the PS3 is like saying a doctor hates a cancer patient by telling him he has three weeks to live.

 

DISCLAIMER: I am, in NO way, comparing the performance of the PS3 to the tragedy of someone dying from cancer.

No, itt's more like you're a doctor telling an otherwise healthy patient with a bad cold that he has three weeks to live.

Well over 85 million 360's sold by 2014
150 + wiis by 2014
40 million ps3s by 2014

I'd love to see your predictions for the end of each year (I do agree, though, that the Wii will sell more than 150 copies by the end of 2014).

Funny. I did not know that wii can run all those games. How do you run a C64 cassette on wii? Or did you mean that there is a very small amount of games available for download on VC? Wii has only gamecube BC.

Considering NEVER SAY DIE was claiming all PS3s to be able to play all PS2 games I don't see a problem..... The Wii's Virtual Console already has MOST of the games the majority of people would want to play on NES/SNES/TurboGrafx/MegaDrive/Master System... it is still wuite low on N64/C64/NeoGeo offerings though, and the Arcade feature has only just launched in tha past couple of months so that is sparse too.

Well the point was that he said "wii has GC,NES,SNES,N64,C64" and so on when it clearly does not have. You can't play those games you might already own on wii. You will have to pay to emulate them. Also it will never have all the games on those platforms. Unlike PS3 which runs PS1 and PS2 games. I guess PS3 runs also those games available on VC with emulators on linux. So PS3 wins, hands down.

 

Also does 360/PS3 have Genesis because there is few selected titles available? You just have to buy genesis collection.

@Kantor... the only WipEout game I have played was terrible, perhaps some are good I don't know.

@Manos.... More than half of Ps3s now (and increasing) do not play any PS2 games at all.... and some of the ones that do play PS2 games don't play them all (80-90% of the PS2 collection is quite a lot of games though) and if you are going into illegal emulation, then the Wii can be modded and made to play all those games too.



Arius Dion on 23 July 2009

Wii: 150+
360: 50+
PS3:40+



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
