Just so you know, PSP's estimate for last year was 15 million, too, before they adjusted it down 5 million to just 10 million after the Go flopped. They are simply way overestimating what affect PS Move will have. Also, MS doesn't do estimates, but I expect they are set to sell at least 12-13 million if not more thanks to Slim + Price Cut + Natal + Halo + Gears + Fable all coming in the next fiscal year.
Also, I believe this is the first time a PS3 estimate has not had to be adjusted down in order to be met so you shouldn't assume it will be correct based on one good year. |
"but I expect they are set to sell at least 12-13 million if not more thanks to Slim + Price Cut + Natal + Halo + Gears + Fable all coming in the next fiscal year."
The most the X360 has sold in a year was 11 million which was in 2008, your saying it's going to sell 1 - 2 million more then that?! I don't think that's possible. First of all Halo, Gears and Fable are not system sellers, the only people that are going to buy them are the existing X360 owners, we all know that. Second a price cut probably wouldn't make a big difference, I mean it's already selling at $200 and it's in it's 5th year, hell it was on sale for $130 for a while. At the most all they can do is drop both SKU's by 50 bucks and I doubt that'll make a huge difference.
Now for the Slim, no one knows if it's real or not so you can't say it's coming if it's not confirmed. And Natal is the wild card, it could do nothing to sales or help it, it won't make a huge impact. I'm skeptical that Natal and Move will do anything to hardware sales.
From the looks of things the PS3 is going to sell very well in 2010, it's already up like 35% from last year, and the big guns aren't even out yet, the PS3's biggest system seller GT5 should be releasing by the end of the year, that'll sell a ton of PS3's.

What are the big guns? Besides GT5?

The Last Guardian, FFVXIII, FFXIV, Socom 4 (going to be big, way better then Navy seals), Modnation racer, Agent, Twisted Metal, and then all those other sequels for the existing PS3 owners.
