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.

Torturing the numbers.  Hear them scream.
