LMAO! How can people seriously believe that the PS3 is only going to ship ~8M-13M more consoles in the next 3 or so years? Hell, it will stand at 85M+ by the end of Sony's FY 2013 (ends March 2014). We still have yet to see the console hit $199, which it will in time for the holiday frenzy this year. This will also come with $150 Black Friday deals, which will help the PS3 stay flat or barely down YOY for Black Friday week. Then, either in '14 or '15, it will have a drop to $150, with a $99 Black Friday bundle.

Then you have to take in consideration that this year or next, Sony will be pushing the PS3 in the emerging regions they are currently pushing the PS2. The same areas that helped at to that ~33M that the PS2 sold outside of the US, EU, and Japan.

So, if the PS2 can sell 55M units after the PS3 has been released, I don't see why the PS3 can't sell at least another 25M units after the PS4 is released. I can definitely see it reaching ~105M, with the (slim) possibility of it hitting ~115M.
