The reasons for this are not so clear. Some may say it's the relatively bad performance of the Wii. But I'm reluctant to call 95 million a bad performance. It may only seem so in comparison to the PS2. Maybe that's the reason. The market was growing, but PS2 totally destroyed the competitors, so they could not profite. This time it's not that clear and all three console-makers benefitting from the increased market.

 

Actually, I need to correct you on something else as well.

The PS2 dominated the sixth generation, but the GameCube was profitable despite sales of only 21 million units.

In the seventh generation, the PS3 will sell in excess of 80 million units, but it won't be profitable for Sony.

Oh, I didn't meant financial profit. I meant, that they could not get a big part of the growing market. I meant 'profitieren' in German. Asking leo, I should write: The market was growing, but PS2 totally destroyed the competitors, so they could not benefit.
