On another thread, it was brought up that a certain console once it got down to $200 would have 1000 games for it. I looked up to see how many consoles in the past have made it to 1000 games (per VGChartz) and here are the results:
Name #of Games| PS2 | 2055 |
| Xbox | 887 |
| PS | 778 |
| SNES | 682 |
| GC | 651 |
| Sat | 392 |
| Wii | 374 |
| N64 | 348 |
| X360 | 327 |
| NES | 305 |
| DC | 287 |
| PS3 | 233 |
| GEN | 205 |
| GG | 110 |
As you can see, only one console, the PS2 had over 1000 games made for their systems. But Xbox came close. And being out only one year +, the Wii is making good progress towards that mark. X360 has a healthy amount, but that is two years. PS3 the laggard, but only one year.
But this thread is not to predict a winner. That's too easy. No, it's going to be much harder than that. I want predictions on when, per VGChartz, there are 500 and then 1000 games for each console, if ever.
Note: My title of the thread is technically off, since VGChartz lists a game before it is launched, but when VGC says there are that many, that will be the official date of reaching the targets.
*fixed*
Torturing the numbers. Hear them scream.
