Those touting the 10 year strategy to back up this amusing prediction I think you need to take into account PS1/2 were market leaders by a huge margin, look at the PSP for one they can keep it on the market for 10 years but I doubt it'll even see 90m at this rate, Sony can keep the PS3 on the market for 10 years but by not being market leader don't expect the same sales its predecessors had. My opinion of this prediction is that it's not going to happen and just someone's wishful thinking.

Or some one looking at events with open eyes.

- PS3 sales increase every time price drops.
- It could end up doing near 20m in a year.
- For sure PS3 has atleast 1 more sales increasing price drop if not two.

It does not need the 10 years to crack 100 Million, it will most likely do it in 6/7. 

 

 

 

 

Keep telling yourself that it may just happen, I'm a PS3 owner as well and quite frankly I'll stick with reality, a lot of users are saying they have the tech yet why is the PS3 being destroyed by the Wii when DQX arrives that will be the PS3s death warrant signed in Japan a region which supplied the PS2 with 20m+ sales to add further injury to the unbeatable force the Wii is in the west, the big franchises MGS, FF and so on have barely moved the competition or troubled them, each price drop only instigates a sales spike over two or so weeks before things return to normal so what next?  Two more price cuts aren't going to make the PS3 sell 20m a year unless they drop the price down to £/$1.00, it won't crack 100m as the momentum the PS2 had being the console to get with no alternatives to it's library isn't there for the PS3 I can see it outselling the 360 and reaching PSP numbers. The consumers have all jumped on the Wii and the 360 has provided a worthy alternative to the PS3 something the PS1/2 didn't have (although the N64 is still one of the best consoles ever made).
