For gods sake.. NO, its not going to happen.. And Sony did NOT sell 77 million either. But even if they did, the notion is just absurd. I'm getting sick of this same ridiculous topic popping up. I'll say it again to make sure it soaks in, NOT going to happen. Just make peace with it already, for yours and my sake.

Honestly, You're gonna get second, Sony fans. Is that not good enough?

Dude, I think it's pretty clear that you've been off again and again when it comes to predicting PS3 sales. You have no right to say stop to this discussion. Here, look at this thread: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=102249&page=1#. I asked you there if you get it now.

"Nah, I'd say 70-75 million MAX. 

PS1 only barely edged past the 100 million mark and it sold quite strong, for nearly 10 years. Sony can say PS3 will sell ten years all they want, but ultimately it's up to the consumers if that comes to fruition, and looking at the sales right now, it doesn't seem likely that it'll have the legs to carry on for another 7 years. "

I don't get how everyone seems to think PS3 will be this console that will magically sell strong for 10 years despite it selling poorly, while the Wii will plummet down far quicker despite it selling much greater amounts. 

Usually a console selling less indicates its life will be shorter and a console selling strongly means it will last longer, it is not the other way around..

 

Seems I got a stalker..

What's so off about the 75 million? It could still drop quickly, and probably will after PS4 comes out. If that's the case, it could taper off at 90 million. And I still don't see the PS3 going strong 10 years so I stand by that second statement.

Look at how many people were off about the Wii sales, yet it doesn't stop them from playing amateur analyst. I think I get to do the same.

I'm not going to bother arguing with you about this.  It's a ridiculous prediction, and I find it absurd that I have to explain something that should be common sense. PS3 is NOT catching Wii.
Sheesh.. I really really gotta take a break from this site..
