| scottie said: @ thanny - that was a combination of adjustments from the Christmas period (where the Wii still sold many more consoles than PS360) and January being the worst month for the Wii, due to supply constraints. Wii should be able to hit 54% by Dec 31 |
While am going to ignore tremble in this thread because his post is pure awsomeness of failure (instead I have already copy/pasted his "predictions" into a saving thread of mine)
54% is very optimistic though.... it is the highest percentage I would consider possible for the end of 2009.... it is more likely to be between 52% and 53% while 51% would be an incredibly low pessimisic estimate.
Think about it, the Wii is unlikely to have sold fewer than 75 million by the end of the year, to have less than 50% marketshare the PS3+360 need to have sold the same..... asking the X360 to reach 40 million is a possibility, but it's at the high end of likelyhood, for the PS3 it would be optimistic to reach 33 million.
For the Wii to go down to 40% it would have to stop selling entirely.
