@everyone: Please start learning how to read charts. What they did is estimate year end figures and then assumed linear sales within each year, leaving out seasonal variances. This does not mean they assume the PS3 to start outselling the Wii next week but rather in 2008 in total.

From the looks of the chart it means they expect the PS3 to outsell the Wii by ~70% in 2008. I think that means they assume the PS3 is going to outsell the Wii by ~70% in 2008. I like Rolstoppable's idea of bundling it with the DS.


but over the whole year of 2008. as is known, ps3 domination will start with MGS4 and at that point wii will look outdated and stop selling for the rest of the year. 


 I hope that was sarcasm (hard to tell on the net)
