jun 07 2007:

 

I think for christmas 2007 the PS3 will show important sales victories in Europe, Australia, Japan (duh!) and other asian countries. For North America I expect sales to go neck to neck, mainly due to the release of Halo 3.

I expect the PS3 to surpass the XBox 360 total hardware sales somewhere late in 2008 and finally when a slimline version appears and the PS2 is retired to dominate significantly over the XBox 360.

My guess (worldwide):

3 years from now (PS2 RIP)

1) PS3
2) Wii

3) X360

I anticipate mass upgrades from the existing PS2 install base by the time the PS2 is discontinued and a cheaper slimline PS3 is released.

I think a Wii HD may be released before the Wii reaches a 40 million install base as well.

My prediction for 2008, PS3 sells like hotcakes in Japan compared to 2007 (360 sales fall flat). 360 and PS3 sales gap will narrow further or overtake for North America, Europe PS3 sales will significantly overtake XBox 360 total sales there.

Christmas 2008, PS3 sales starts to beat global sales of the Wii (have been called names for suggesting this with regard to 360 vs PS3 Christmas 2007 sales last year, now people may be a little more open minded).

shams:
Only the PS2 can take down the Wii

I would think more along the lines of a Slimline PS3, which may not happen in 2008, maybe more likely in 2009 with the PS2 getting retired.

I think the Wii will outsell other home consoles for 2008 as a whole, but I think the PS3 will win christmas 2008

The only right prediction in this timeframe:

AUG 25 2007

For Japan I see no chance for the XBox 360 to be of any true significance, for Europe and the rest ot the world I expect the PS3 to win overall (even despite a price drop).

Your first prediction for a slimline was for 2008 and ofcourse you are eventually right if you keep moving the prediction on a yearly basis.

MikeB's predictions  come true as often as a broken clock displaying the right time of day.

Keep changing your predictions and the year and you eventually get a sales prediction right.
