Let a guy with an Xbox avatar tell you that the Playstation 3 isn't going to be discontinued and looks likely to pass the 50 million units mark at some point.

 

Indeed, which would be passing the SNES and approaching the NES.

It would actually mean passing Super NES sales. My original prediction was about 60 million units lifetime sales but the reccession pretty much throws everything upside down and makes it hard to predict lifetime sales at this point.

 

Recession hasn't hurt box office sales, so we'll see.

20 million over 2+ years is a good estimate for 50 million over 5+ years.

What would be really amazing is the Wii beating PS1, 360 beating NES, and PS3 at least beating SNES. Shows the expansion of the market.
