peachbuggy said: No the dreamcast launched first. I am saying that as soon as the next gen starts, the Ps3 will become irrelevant to retailers, as people will be more hyped by the new consoles so there will be only enough space for them and the current market leaders. Maybe you need me to spell it out to you in simpler terms. SONY CAN SUPPORT THEIR CONSOLE FOR AS LONG AS IT LIKES BUT IF THAT CONSOLE IS NOT BEING STOCKED AT RETAIL IT WON'T COUNT FOR JACK! I will rephrase the question. How many times in the past has a console that is not market leader stayed out in the marketplace longer than the market leader? |
Just because a console is not a market leader it won't be cut off from retailers as long as it keeps selling.

Also it is pretty obvious that both 360 and ps3 will sell more than the best selling second place console before this gen. That would be N64 with 32 million sales.
Just a reminder.
