So the OP is now updated with averages. In addition, the table is now in alphabetical order. 

 

Notes:

 

  • There are 76 participants, of whom 15 predicted the PS3 to sell over or including 10 million this year.
  • This compares to only 2 users who predicted the 360 to sell over or including 10 million this year.
  • However, 32 users predicted the WiiU to sell over or including 10 million this year.
  • Only 4 users believe the Wii will sell over 4 million units this year.
  • The highest 3DS prediction is 28 million units; the same as its current LTD. 
  • 4 users predict the 3DS to sell more than 20 million units this year, with no users predicting below 10 million for the year.
  • Contrast this to the highest prediction of the Vita, which is below 9.5 million (the next highest is 8.5 million below this). So, Vita's absolute best-case is the 3DS' absolute worst-case.
  • 26 people predicted PS4 sales for the year, compared to 46 for the 720. So more people believe the 720 will arrive this year than the PS4.
  • The difference between the highest and the lowest Wii U prediction is 10.6 million, more than the highest 360 prediction
  • On average, people predicted the 3DS to outsell the Vita by 3:1. However, the most extreme example is 14:1.
  • The lowest complete set of data with all console totals added together comes to less than the Wii+DS in 2007, 2009, and is 10 million lower than in 2008.
  • Indeed, the average total sales for each person is less than 1 million above the Wii+DS in 2008.
Averages (with YoY predictions):

PS3- 9.40 (-18%)

360- 7.67 (-22%)

Wii- 2.64 (-46%)

Wii U- 9.30 (+413%)

3DS-15.66 (+12%)

PSV-5.60 (+62%)

DS-1.93 (-44%)

PSP-1.43 (-51%)

 

Total-55.92 (+7%)
