Does anyone think PS3 can realistically get to second place?

LTD? yes, PS3 is the only console who can stay on market until 2013, nintendo e Microsoft will be forced to launch their consoles in 2011 or 2012.

LOL good one. We all know that 10 year plan is bull. PS4 is due in 2012-early 2013. I only say 2013 because Sony lost so much cash, and needs time to recoup.

I know the PS3's strength alone won't change much. http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=67430&page=1

PS3 is the console with more third party support, and Microsoft is running out of possible price cuts (without a new version of Xbox360)...I recongnize it is more likely that PS4 will come out in 2012, but actually PS3 is the console wich looks to be able to sell constantly for the most time. The only way Nintendo could push Wii sales again is with price cuts (and that would cut too much in Wii's profitability), big million sellers to new customers (new hardcore IP) or new versione, Wii Plus/Wii HD (I believe Nintendo won't do what Pachter wants anyway).

IMHO Sony will still lose money this year because Microsoft will cut the price and they will do the same just not to loose marketshare...and this would work, the PS3 will take the Xbox360 sometimes in 2011. Then it'll be extremely difficult for MS to retake the spot, but I expect this gen to end with little difference (less than 5 millions) between the 2 consoles...free to disagree :)
