Theres no precedent to infer that the PS3 will be on the market for longer than the Xbox 360 but theres at least past precedent to say that it would be on the market for less time. Between those two positions the strongest position would be based around the 'less time on the market position' as there is more evidence to back it up. |
Precedent: Neo Geo

You could also mention the Master System in Brazil, but could you really say the PS3 could survive on a niche part of the market?
Ya bloody Oracle! 
Note: Even if you work for Oracle your current employer is at present teaming up with Microsoft and others to sue the good IBM for abuse of monopolistic power in the server market. *From what I hear*
