Forums - Sales Discussion - the ps3 will sell 100 milllion?

Gotta love that Ps2 slim analogy. Your forgetting that when the PS2 slim came out it was less than $200; not $300. Big difference.

It also was already selling far better than the PS3, had far more exclusives as well as games overall. (San Andreas anyone)

Sorry, PS3 is not selling over 60m and that's a significant maximum. Remember, next gen will start in about 2-3 years. Took them 2.5 to get to 24m.

Why bring this up, Superchunk? Folks aren't listening, paying attention or even caring about your ounce of truth. They want to twirl around like ballerinas, with the birds chirping, something like this ...

where the PS3 will make a miraculous comeback, folks will quit the 360 and Wii and buy a PS3.

Just like when gebx and others were posting real news, they wanted to feel happy making their PS3 purchase. Me? I'd prefer to deal with real-life stuff and game, not clown on one system or the other.



What, son, what? New York, New York!!!

I can honestly see the PS3 reaching 85-90 million.




Well ignoring the incredibly flawed idea that the OP is... the facts are also wrong as Ph4nt has already stated.

The PStwo did not make up 80% of PS2 sales. It is in fact less than 50%.

As of March 2007 the PStwo had production shipments (not sales) of 44 million, we can be pretty sure at that time no more old PS2s were being shipped so any sales since then were PStwo only.

Total PS2 production shipments at that same time was 118 million... Sony has gone on to just under 140 million PS2s as of now.

So 140 - 118 - 22 million

22 + 44 = 66 million.

66 million PStwo compared to 74 million PS2 originals... that's 47%.

but guys, think when the ps3 hits 100 dollars in lets say two-four years itll be the cheapest and most valuable blue ray player and that will cause million of people to but it!



what the fudge r u doing panda? You can't have an opinion, your a panda



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Ok this convinced me this thread is a joke.

1. In 2-4 years this gen will be over and the only console still avail will be the Wii @ $99. MS and Sony will eithe be phasing out or fully replaced by their newer versions by then.

2. Bluray players can be had for $150 now, they will be $50 in 2-4 years. PS3 has almost never been and will never be the cheapest bluray player.



i hate it when something big is unveiled at a game show and then everyone starts either bashing about it or just randomly start threads to say that this product ius gonna change the gaming industry and gonna take down this product......

100 million?! No goddamn way. 80 is the top imo, probably lands somewhere around the 70 million mark by generation's end.
