With the price drop and a few good games I strongly believe the PS3 will take 2nd place by the end of 2008 (WW). Now looking into 2009 and later... Wii is not "next gen" hardware, its a lot of fun but it will age faster than both the PS3 and the 360. So, how long do you think it can stay ahead? My guess is that in 6 months or so Wii sales curve will stall and it will eventually be passed by the PS3. Maybe it will stay ahead for the next 2 years but eventually the PS3 will win due to the 100+ million of PS2 owners waiting for a $200-$300 PS3." I do not know where to start. This post is so f&(%#ed up it isn't funny. 1. That is not how the charts work. The PS3 will sell the same total as the Wii now, in 7 months. 2. 100 Million people aren't brand loyaltists 3. Hardware plays no major role in the console wars. 4. You use no logic for your statements, at least back it up. No anyone else care to go into detail? |
Logic? ROFL
Anyway I will try to explain my logic:
For PS3 vs 360 my logic goes something like:
1) PS3 sells the same in the first year as the 360 even when the 360 had 2 major advantages: no next gen competition and much cheaper. LOGIC 360 DID WAY BETTER!
2) PS3 drops to $400. LOGIC SALES MUST GO DOWN!
3) PS3 gets MGS, GT, FFXII. LOGIC SALES WILL FREAKING DROP LIKE CRAZY!
And for PS3 vs Wii my logic is something like:
1) In 1-2 years when everyone has a 1080p TV... LOGIC WII'S 480P ROCKS!
2) PS3 is expensive, Wii is pretty cheap. LOGIC 100M PS2 USERS ARE WAITING ON A WII PRICE DROP TO BUY ONE!
I admit, my logic sucks but it's what I believe will happen, so what? You don't have to believe it, you can believe in whatever you like.
