Some thing people over look when they guess the final sales.

  1. PS3 and 360 WILL go down in price.
  2. Their powerfull hardware gives then a longer life then wii.
  3. Ps3/360 game line ups are WAY underestimated.
  4. We have no clue if Wii can maintain their love affair with the non gamers.
  5. The 3rd partys have still yet to take a clear side unlike the last two gens.
  6. Nintendo has really been alienating the hardcore/core gamers.
  7. Sony and MS wont just lay down and let Nintendo win.
  8. PS2 is still ensuring PS3s future.
  9. MS bank account is quite big, they could really go all out if they wanted.
  10. PS brand has a past user base of +100 million, its still there waiting.

  1. So will the Wii.
  2. No, software drives hardware sales, not powerful hardware.
  3. Actually they are overestimated, they lack diversity.
  4. The DS gives us a hint.
  5. They are shifting resources to the Wii, if continues to sell that well (it probably will) it's clear for developers which side to choose (plus lower development costs).
  6. Nope, plenty of hardcore/core gamers on this forum, most of them own a Wii and love it.
  7. Sure, but what can they do, they are spending their money nearly solely on "hardcore" games.
  8. How so? Brand loyalty only helps to sell the first 2-3m of systems.
  9. Sure, but are they really willing to lose more billions of $ on a toy?
  10. That's wishful thinking, just like point 6 and 8.

Was gonna anwser but after #3 and #10 its quite apperant that theres not point.
