As a well known Wii fanboy I believe I can be objective in this:

the gap according to VGC is 7.387 million currently

Even if the the PS3 continues to average 84K greater sales a week than the 360 (the sales gap last week), it would take approximately 88 weeks for the PS3 to pass the 360 WW

So a year and half, not taking into consideration Christmas boost and SW boosts?

Sounds very possible when you put it that way.


  No I factored in Christmas boosts and the such, because PS3 is unlikely to maintain its sales lead throughout the next year and a half, in fact I fully expect many weeks, even months, next year where 360 retakes the lead, so I estimated, that even taking into account holiday boosts and software releases, the best PS3 can hope for is averaging a sales lead around what it has now

 

However that is a best case scenario for the PS3



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
