@xLeftyx yes PS3 will take it home console wise, next year the PS3 will have some real competition.

What competition are you referring to? Wii U? Yes, there will competition once it releases. However, Wii U's impact is still questionable at this point in time. From how it's going, it'll divide the so-called "hardcore" market that already exists. At best, only a fraction combined will be early adopters.

Either way, however Nintendo's approach with how they market the console will be the deciding factor.

Just like the Wii's impact was questionable before it released and look how that turned out. You realize the 3DS sold nearly as well with less months on the market. Stop making the PS3 sound unstoppable. It can be beat easily. It will sell even less next year. I guess you expext another price cut and remodel lol, the PS3 must have an unlimited amount of those right? and remind me how has the PS3 done against previous 2d Mario games. I guess we will see next month.

I'll admit Wii was severely underestimated in terms of sales. In this industry, especially of now, you cannot gauge a console's life by comparing it from last generation.
All I said about Wii U is its impact is still questionable. I never implied Wii U will perform well nor is it an indication that it will fail. Furthermore, I never insinuated PS3 is unstoppable.
I agreed with you that PS3 will have a competition once Wii U releases, and since we still have yet to learn more about Wii U, formulating a prediction how well it'll do may be premature. There are just simply too many variables to do so.
