Edit: Found it.  Interesting, didn't realize it was still over PS2.

Also didn't realize that the "decline" was so similar to each console.


The big issue though is that a new Nintendo console is coming soon, while PS3 took forever to come out... and was also "expensive as balls."

I miss having these charts on VGchartz.  What's Nintendo's expecting shipping total this year?  Below where PS2 was right?

Wii actually doing a lot better then what I thought. 

Huh?  Wii(2006) - Cafe(2012) = 6 years.  PS2(2000) - PS3(2006) = 6 years.  Both of their successors came out/will come out in the same amount of years.  And while it is true that the PS3 was expensive, there were cheaper alternatives. 

The Wii is going to see a much quicker drop in sales compared to the PS2 in the next few years.  I doubt it will sell ~ 11 million in 2013, it's 7th year on the market, like the PS2 did in its 7th year.  Nor do I see it having the staying power to be on the market for 5 years after the Cafe, like the PS2 was able to do.
