Wii will be the only console to make. You guys saying the PS3 will make it are being delusional.

really now, how many consoles did the PS2 sell AFTER the PS3 was launched

the PS3 is a gaurentee the new model this late into the generation confirms that

Different situation.

PS2 didn't have strong competition and was a great option for those who didn't want to buy expensive next gen hardware. Sony basically owned that market.

The PS3 on the other hand has very strong competition. Don't expect PS3 to have legs like PS2 because of the Wii and 360.

wii is dead and the only thing keeping the 360's head above the water is the holiday kinect boost which isn't Sony's market

Actually I think the PS3 will last longer in developing countries than the ps2, once they start upgrading, becasue of how much more it adds, the established online network, free games and services, and dirt cheap yet high quality games,  the PS3 can go on indefinitely where the ps2 was only really viable becasue the ps3 was too expensive.

Wii isn't dead. It has room for price cuts and I think it'll still do pretty well for the next few years simply relying on its 1st party lineup.

Kinect isn't keeping the 360's, "head above water." Its allowing the 360 to maintain strong sales without relying on MASSIVE price cuts to stimulate sales. Which is why the 360 is actually profitable, while PS3...

I agree with your statment about PS3's lasting longer than PS2 because of the online related content. Digital downloads and streaming entertainment will keep the 360 and PS3 relevant for years to come, worldwide. Although, I hear internet access in developing nations is not so great or fast. They may be an obstacle.
