I think that MS will sell more than 18m xbox 360's this year alone. I think that the price cut will be U$ 50 (the arcade will cost U$ 249 and will come with 8gb and the "elite" will cost U$ 349  and will come with 320gb or 500gb with kinect). At this price and with the success of kinect it will easily sell more than wii does, is a new mix of core casual market together.

Hope is a great thing, :P.

If MS looks like it'll get anywhere close to that, Sony and NIntendo will just take emergency measures ($99 Wii, $199 PS3, VS, software...) and crush its momentum.

I am fairly certain neither Sony or Nintendo will do any "emergency" efforts to counter the 360 momentum.  Sony is trying to maintain profitability and I seriously doubt they will sacrifice that because they are afraid of what MS will do.  Nintendo will own the Holidays no matter what the price point is.  

It would be nice if the 360 did 18 million though, I just don't see it happening.

Obvoiusly they won't, :P. Just saying that if 360 got that high, Sony/Nintendo would do something.

Obviously it won't do quite that much (though it'll still do pretty well, looks like).
