When will PS3 surpass Xbox360 for total sales? 2011 or 2012

For MS to drop another few billion on another console while Sony simply "sits out" "next gen" and rides the PS3 of course that would be a victory. MS will first try and re brand the 360 with Natal and continue to try and convice people they don't need blu-ray until 360 sales start to seriously dwindle. Then they'll come out with the 720.

With Wii HD and PS3 looking to be similar in specs the 720's power won't even be able to stretch its legs as developers will be forced to choose between developing for WiiHD/PS3 or go 720 exclusive. Consider MS's first party studio situation and you'll have an understanding of where I'm coming from.

Oh really?

I beg to differ.  If anything, with the way technology has advanced and decreased in price, the Wii HD would likely be drastically more capable than the PS3 and 360.  The Wii HD and 720 would be more closely related in tech level.  The PS3 would be alienated.

That is unless you have some proof of the Wii HD specs?

The only proof you need is Nintendo's insane profit margin this generation. Nintendo has stepped out of the console specs pissing contest and it has worked well for them.

 

And no doubt Sony and MS see the same thing. Why lose another few billion dollers launching even MORE powerful console when you've already lost billions of dollers launching machines that are already equiped to last deep into the HD generation.
