Forums - Sony Discussion - Will the PS3 reach 30m units by the end of 09?

wow, just goes to show how good the ps3 is doing lately. It has surpassed nearly everyone's expectations. I remember seeing this thread awhile ago and I LOLed.

Yet another sales prediction thread I'm glad I didn't contribute to early on. I'm sure I would have been a pessimist, or at least a fence sitter. At least in this thread no one was questioning the OP's sanity, and there was a decent number who agreed. So noty as much fun reading the first couple of pages, and not as much crow being supped.

Expect a big drop for WE 27/12. Japan PS3 dumbers will crash (relatively) back below 100K, and the other regions will have substantial drop offs too. It'll probably fall to 600-700K. It'll be close to 31 million for sure.

With a week like this adjustments are inevitable, as they were last year. Do you think the adjustments will keep PS3 above 1 million? I think Japan will stay as is. America was higher than I expected (I was thinking 350 max). Others was lower than I expected (I was thinking a little over 400K). I reckon PS3 should hold on to its 7 figure achievement.

Do you remember 22 August 2009? http://vgchartz.com/weekly.php?date=40048&console=&maker=&boxartz=1# Seems like a lifetime ago.

Just look at my end of the year prediction in my signature....It seems that I even underestimated it because there are two weeks left. =D



Always nice to see PS3 haters as Darth getting pwned ^^'. He deserves a ban for not BELIEVE in PS3.

Your predictions are very similar to my own, it must be something in the water here in the Nordic region!

people dont get tired of been wrong... it was fun to read this thread... me also wrong this year... wii did better then i expected and HD twins did worse as you can see from my sig... but i didnt get to far off being a all year prediction... but you really underestimate the playstation brand.

Wonder if the guy who started the thread would go back and edit it to say "32 mil" by the end of the year
