Lol some of you PS3 fans are just getting delusional now. Do you realize how many millions upon millions of consoles MORE that the PS3 has to sell than the Wii? Even making up 5 million on the Wii would be nearly impossible at this point, but 35 million?? Lol, come on, let's fly back to reality here. Just be happy with your probably soon to be second place console and be thankful that Sony is a large enough corporation to make their console available in far more countries than the other two.. Why are you guys so scared of potentially being in 3rd place? I've never seen a fanbase in such denial. Trust me, the world will keep on turning if Sony ends up in 3rd place. I supported the 3rd place Gamecube and still don't regret it. I had tons of fun games for it that I enjoyed. Just remember, the PS3 not only has to sell 35 million more units, (which in itsell will be a VERY difficult task since you are asking it to almost double its userbase for a console that is already 5 years old), but it has to sell 35 million units MORE THAN the Wii sells from this point on. So even if we're conservative on Wii sales here and say for the sake of argument, that the Wii sells only 25 million for the rest of its life then comes crashing down, bringing it to 100 million, that would mean the PS3 would need to sell... another 60 million consoles just to catch up! Just really think about the reality of what you are claiming here.. And tell me, just what kind of software is going to push 60 million more units? Do you really think a price drop and Move could potentially move that much hardware? Lol... Now, will PS3 gain some ground on Wii? Well considering the situation of third parties killing the Wii and rushing to PS3, and the fact that Sony has availability in far more countries than Wii, yes it probably will. But it will probably gain something like a few million, and even that is being awfully optimistic for the PS3. |
lets see; currently Wii is 35m units ahead of PS3.
the way i see it if Sony sells 15m more then Wii one yr and 10m another; that will negate that 35m unit lead the Wii has over the PS3.
now for something more reasonable?
if PS3 sells 5m more then Wii for the next 6 yrs (10 yr vision and all) it will be 5m away from tying the Wii in sells so one of those yrs it will need to sell 10m more then Wii in one of those yrs to tye the Wii, and 6m more in one yr to beat Wii by a hair.
and its not delusion? its faith, but i'm not a share holder so, although it may be blind faith?
