Ok, basically I'm curious as to people's end of generation state of the industry predictions.
I am going on record saying the following (by the time all three consoles stop selling)
* The Wii will end on more than 50% marketshare
* The PS3 and 360 will end on similar hardware sales (within about 10 million of each other)
* By the end of the generation, the majority of big budget 3rd party releases will be on the Wii (not neccassarily Wii exclusive)
* Nintendo will be last to release an 8th gen home console, or approximately equal last (ie within a month of a competitor)
* All home consoles will be released in their first region within 13 months of each other
* The Wii will be on sale in Japan, USA, and Western Europe until later than the PS360
* The 360 will sell more software than the PS3, and will have the highest attach ratio of any console ever
* The PS4, Wii2 and Xbox 720 will all exist, though possibly with better names :P
* The DS2 and PSP2 will exist. Once again, maybe different names
* An xbox portable will not be released in the 8th gen
If you doubt any of these predictions, I'd like to hear it. Provide an explanation of why you believe this if you wish, but I would rather this stay as a sales prediction thread than a 'which is the best console' thread
