| mitsuhide said: The N64(according to this site)sold 5million WW the GC sold 16million WW so by this the Wii will sell atleast 3times what the GC sold which is 48million atleast which is quite respectable but it depends on what the PS3 and X360.The PS3 is on target for PS2 sales for awhile and the X360 is on target for PS2/XB sales so this Gen might be interesting(sales wise). |
Are you joking? The only thing that keeps the PS3 close to the PS2 for the moment is that PS2 numbers on this site doesn't include numbers from others and the PS3 was launched WW. Look at Japanese PS2 sales vs PS3 WW, those numbers says everything: PS3 has now WW sold just a little more than PS2 did in Japan alone. Sony has lost Japan and that is enough for not doing PS2 numbers.
Xbo360 might sell better than XB but to state that it is even close to doing PS2 numbers is insane. With the awfull sales in Japan medicore sales in EU, xbox360 will never be a PS2 saleswise.
The Wii might not get PS2 numbers but they are doing nice numbers. With the latest increase in shipment Nintendo should be able to hold a 20-22 million user base WW in the end of fiscal year 07 (march 08 I think). That is the same amount as the GameCube has LTD. From there one I think there is no looking back. I personally think that Wii will at least sell PS2 numbers in Japan and that lead alone should make Wii a possible WW winner even if xbox360 or PS3 starts selling in USA and EU.
Buy it and pray to the gods of Sigs: Naznatips!
