seriously, it will get there, but so what?


3rd best selling console of all time

70 million would be the 3rd best selling console of all time? Are you saying the Wii won't get there?

ok I may have forgot the wii :p I meant 4rth

The PS3 could also get there (it is, in fairness, likely to sell for longer than the 360).

On topic (for the first time in this topic for me :P): Personally, I don't see it happening, unless Natal is a really big success. MS are still building the Xbox brandname in a lot of places (outside of the US/UK, where it is pretty set up now). That's not to say the 360 hasn't been (or isn't going to be) successful. To go from an install base of 24 million (that is what the original Xbox finished on, right?) to what it is now is good progress, and it isn't done selling yet. 50 million would be a massive success by most people's standards. I can see it ending up in the 55-65 million region, unless Natal is very successful. Then again, I can see Xbox 3 coming out even if Natal is successful, with Natal 2.0 out of the box with Xbox 3. Still, it has already been very successful by most measurements (unless we want to start saying it has to sell 100 million, or has to place 1st, in which case Nintendo has never been successful and Sony was only "just" successful with PS1).
