Flagship, the topic creator is not talking about sales; rather, their ability to close the gap between themselves and other companies. They might move more consoles, but Microsoft is not going to sit still and wait for that to happen.
Nintendo are pretty much out of this conversation so I am going to keep this as close as I can. XBOX 360 vs PS3 is all about Europe. Japan and America have decided on the console of their choice and if Sony can manage some clever marketing in Europe, they might be able to overcome Microsoft Worldwide.
That does not mean they should neglect the NTSC region though. As Microsoft will begin to top off, gamers might want that secondary console. Also, should Blu-Ray win the format war, you can almost see the sales growth of the PS3 starting later than thee other consoles. This may result in it topping off later.
This could be the most entertaining consoles generation saleswise in the history of video games. So many exciting possibilities...
