@TWRoO, it will be 6 mln. PS3 in Japan by the end 2009 atleast.
You realise it is only 2.3 million now right?... currently it still hasn't broken away from the same line the
GameCube was on... which is why my minimum is 4 million (I don't believe any of my minimums are likely
by the way... just possible) FFXIII is the only reason I am expecting PS3 to propely pull away from the GC.

It will be 10 mln. PS3 LTD with the release of PS3 slim.
Come on, you must be joking. No I certainly am not.

American numbers, PS3 is only by 1,5 mln. behind x360 on same lifetime.
1.5mln is quite a lot when the totals are only 5.7 and 7.1 million.
So far, if x360 reach 14-15 mln. in NA this year, that means already atleast 13-14 mln. PS3 by the end of 2009
Like I said... the minumums are very unlikely... but it's still possible.

Or you think with KZ2, FFXIII, GT5, T6, HR and etc. PS3 is going to sell worse? Not to mentionm 299$ price.
I can't say much to that other than =)=)=)

In Others, PS3 is going to make around 7 mln. atrleast this year, or 11 mln. total. It`s not even at 299 euro price. So far, 25 mln. will be alreadty by the end of 2010. By which time it will be slowing down and nicely make
my expected range (29-34) by 2012.

I recommend you to check your minimal expectatioons. I reccomend you look at the PS3 sensibly like you
do with the PSP.

AND Wii in Japan is SLOWING down.This year only Wii Music and AC left for them. Why would it has any increase?
I think it would increase because it will... EVERY YEAR the PS2 slowed down during this time of year... and
if you would care to check, the Wii is still tracking above the PS2. (PS2s Christmas/January period comes
soon due to launch differences, so Wii line will go back under temporarily)
 Japan is the only region where I have reasonable doubt that the Wii won't surpass the PS2... (hence
expected range being 20-25 million... PS2 is likely to end it's life at the high end of that range) due
in part to the so far idiot third parties, but also due to the decline of console gaming in favour of
handheld in the country. But I am almost positive it will still surpass all previous Nintendo Home consoles.
(NES is the only one that is above my minimum for Wii... at 19.23 million shipped)

Editing to try stop it cropping the edges.
