Well the Wii would have done a little worse at the start, but not much. I think in the long run it would have outpaced the actual Wii. It might have gotten better third party, but who knows.

360 would have done much worse I think. 360 really benefited from the early launch, even if RROD was a pain, they got their foot in the door and used that to beat sony for most of the gen. If sony as you said came out with a cheaper model around the same time as the 360, I could see it putting the xbox brand away.

I think in this scenario: Wii 120 million lifetime PS3 100 million lifetime xbox 45-50 million lifetime.

but PS3 is probably going to end up at 100m NOW so being cheaper and keeping more market from MS wouldn't change anything?

Yeah, I don't see it making 100 million. Everyone says that, but I'm going to call bullshit.

At the very least it's going to come close. It's already done ~5 million this year, so hitting at least 83-84 million after the holidays should be no problem. Then it'll probably drop to 6-7 million or so in 2014, which would put it at around 90 million (though a significant price drop could actually result in higher numbers). Another 10 million after that point is a completely reasonable estimation.


I think PS4 + lack of software after the holiday will cripple it more than you think.

Regardless if it makes it or not, it will come close which is all hes saying



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
