Right. Because logic dictates that a console that took 6-7 years to sell 75 million during peak sales will sell another 25 million after the successor launches. The PS3 is not the PS2. Selling 1/3rd of its total sales after the successor releases is not a certainty. A possibility, sure, but a certainty is not the right word. |
Sales peak? Where are you getting that from? The system costs more right now than the Wii at launch. I'd say it'll peak when it reaches the mainstream price of $149. If at $129, the PS3 isn't able to 100M sold, then you'll be right. But as it stands, the PS3 is at 78-79M at $270 (and that's the lowest price worldwide). As the price becomes affordable in developing countries, the sales will keep accumulating. Sales aren't going to die any time soon.
Also, 78-79M is not 1/3rd of 155-160M.
