The PS3 Will be the number 1 selling console in Europe this gen.

How do we go through 3 pages and no one lists numbers from the site.

As of Dec 3rd VGC data:

Console	NA	Japan	EU+Others
Wii	43.33	12.63	41.25
X360	39.29	1.62	29.16
PS3	24.36	8.65	35.33

So, now lets see each gap.

Wii vs X360 in NA has a gap of 43.33 - 39.29 = 4.04m.
Wii's decline will slow as it hits the $99 price point with the new WiiMini and other bundles for 2013-2015 as its retired as a console.
X360's decline is already double digits per year (just as Wii's was beginning in 2011). It will be higher once neXtBox is confirmed in early 2013.

Wii's 2012 NA should end ~2m. X360s NA should be ~5m. That means X360 gained 3m in 2012. 2013 would at most be another 3m. So depending on how much Wii's decay rate slows and how much X360's increases... it could happen in 2014.

So yes, there is a distinct possibility X360 will have the lead in NA by 2014, but at the very least it SHOULD happen before each console is retired.

From the frontpage:

Wii: 43,7m

360: 40,2m

Gap = 3.5m

I think the gap will be about one million by the end of the year.
