@Avinash_Tyagi,

what was your POINT, again? =))

My point was that PS3 and 360 demand is weak if they can't even beat Wii this week, and that indicates that GTA4/MGS4/FF13 and such aren't going to be able to give them much momentum going forward in spite of the beliefs of many


 there has been no game released on PS3 of that magnitude yet. Yet, you're setting this week as a precedent for the release of those games..

THat makes TOTaL sense. 


 No, i'm using this as a baseline for PS3 sales, then I take a 60% rise in Hardware sales, for the week those games release putting the systems in the upper 200's-low 300's, not quite to the level of what the Wii does most weeks, and considering those bumps are not sustainable, it won't be a permanent rise into that territory



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
