I can't see how Sony can be the winner of the gen. Although they are specificly talking about the PS3 here. Still, the PS3 let all their opponent's catch up, and we still do not know if it will be the best seller, for those that only looks at that, and not the whole picture. |
It's not really fair to say "it went from 150 to 100" and look at that as a bad thing. The PS2 was a little over 100M when the PS3 came out....and then kept on selling. It was on the market for 13 years. To compare 13 years to 7 years and then say since the console that has been on sale for 6 years less time sold less units, it "went down" is ignorant. Check the numbers again in 2019/2020. That's like looking at the iPhon 5s and say "it has sold less than the iPhone 4s, so it's not as successful as its predecessor" while ignoring the fact the 5s hasn't been out anywhere near as long as the 4s
