Ok then, this gen is far from done selling in my opinion. Maybe another 25mil in the next 6 to 7 years. As for next gen I expect the Wii U to sell less than the Ps3 this gen and that less people buy multiple consoles. So I expect a huge decrease in sales.


So, you think the trend is going to stop? I don't think so. There are new markets in developing countries. China, Brazil, India, Mexico, Rest of Latin-America, Some Asian countrien and East-europe are gonna buy more consoles next-gen. I see nextbox and PS4 doing near to 100 M. WiiU could do anything. I don't have a clear prediction for that consoles, but maybe 90 M.

 

As for this one, it has already sold huge numbers, and I think it's gonna see a fast and big decrease in sales. Maybe 15 more M.

The trend will stop unless MS or Sony grab the market the Wii lost and then actually continue support for it unlike Nintendo. 15 million more in 7 years across 3 platforms? Only way I see that happening is if they all discontinue their products but why would they do that when they will sell well enough to justify still being on the market (look at the Ps2). I can see all of them supporting their machines well into the next gen. Sony's price tag is still 250. there is still al ot of sales to be had from this machine once it gets cheaper.
