@Garnett- We'll see. I prefer the 360 and that's probably the system I would choose to get as my second console to go along with my Wii. I just think that the PS3 will be stronger in Europe by a large margin before it's over. And at some point, the PS3 will do very well in Japan and the sales will pick up. That's why I think the PS3 will eventually take the #2 spot.
kylohk, I'm a Nintendo fanboy so I wouldn't mind if they did get over 50% of the market. They're at over 47% now but I don't think they'll keep up sales to the point where they're outselling PS3 and Xbox 360 combined. I think sometime starting next year, sales will level out a little bit especially as prices drop on all three consoles. The Wii will still be popular and almost always lead in weekly sales but I think it will be more like 40% for the Wii and somewhat divided between the HD consoles with whichever system has the big game or price drop at the moment taking the lead that week.
That's how I looked at it and came to my guess at the percentage. If I had to give actual sales numbers, I'd guess-
Wii 110 Million
PS3 73 Million
Xbox 360 60 Million
I'll come up with something better eventually...
