Well the PS3 is currently sitting at 5.93m and there is 6/7 weeks of sales left before the end of the year. Using current sales figures as a standard as we do not expect the weekly figures to go down the closer it gets to Xmas, it's more likely to significantly to go up...so at the moment, the PS3 is selling 87k in NA, 80k in OR and 63k in JP. There are 7 weeks of sales figures remaining in JP and only 6 in OR and NA. Using these figures, the PS3 should sell at least 1.44m by the end of the year. Which means that it should sell at least 7.37m
Being realistic though, the sales should go up significantly. I expect the NA numbers to break 100k easily for a few weeks and this should happen in OR as well. We may very well see sales push to to close to 90k in JP as well.
I personally expect the sales to be this:
JP - 441k-600k
OR - 480-700k
NA - 522-800k
So selling anywhere from 1.44m to 2.1m over the next 6/7 weeks.
So 7.37m to 8.03m
