Either way, it's nice to see Nintendo less than 3 mill. away from the combined totals of their competitors.

 

 No, those predictions were made during one of the more optimistic times. Generally, people have been predicting 46-47% Market share for Wii by the end of the year. People were expecting Ps360 to sell more than Wii during holidays. I believe that it was first in October that people started predicting 48-49%. And now in November/December, people might  start to predict 49-50%.

Just in March, people who predicted 50% Wii by the end of the year were considered fools, and the popular opinion was closer to 45-47%.

 

So, no. My estimates were made during optimistic times for Ps3, whereas it is now coming into a more realistic time for predictions.
