| GranTurismo said: Third parties are not supporting the system, if you call crappy ports of PS2 games, and even more crap games made to cash in on the system then LOL. Plus third parties are still keeping the big projects on the PS3/360/PC, and making crappy spin-offs for the wii. "By the end of March 2008 the Wii will have outsold the XBox 360 and PS3 combined on a worldwide basis" This made me laugh, do you think the other systems are not going to sell at all during Christmas time. The PS3 still has not released any of its big games, this will start with Ratchet this christmas, followed by GT5 prologue, then have games like GTA, FF, GT, MGS and Killzone during 08. The wii only has games with Mario in the name, the only other game the wii has is MP3. |
I do believe that the PS3 and XBox 360 will sell systems at Christmas and take a similar percentage of the total hardware sales as they have managed through out all of 2007; in that time the Wii has outsold the XBox 360 and PS3 combined by 2 Million units worldwide.
My prediction is not that unrealistic, in fact I believe that it would be unrealistic to expect the PS3 or XBox 360 to sell disproportionately more than they have this year because the PS3 does not have a single exclusive franchise being released this year that has a track record of breaking 3 Million sales worldwide and the XBox 360 has already been out for 2 years and only seen a minimal price reduction (meaning most of the people who want an XBox 360 for that price have probably bought it); at the same time this is the first major holday season for the Wii, and it has 2 games with a track record of selling more than 5 Million units being released in this holiday season.
The only reason I could see my prediction not comming true is if Nintendo is unable to supply enough Wii systems; even then I would expect it to happen within weeks of my March 31st 2008 deadline.
