Here is where last generation was at the end of 2002, with just 3 years to go till the Xbox 360 released.
| Console | Weekly | Total |
|---|---|---|
 |
1,459,331 (-) | 39,401,621 |

390,626 (-) | 6,408,925 |

288,216 (-) | 6,490,007 |
In other words.... your problem is assuming that the consoles stop selling when the next gen starts..... The Wii at least will continue on just like the PS2 is now, So 250 million for this generation is very likely, and 300 million is not out of the question, though a tad higher than I would estimate.
