Will Sony be able to do it in the 8th gen? A look at what each has sold so far. PS3 and 360 with estimated 7th gen final sales included.
Nintendo
Nes: 69 million
Snes: 49 million
N64: 32 million
Gcn: 21 million
Wii: 102 million
Total: 268 Million
Microsoft
Xbox: 24 million
360: 88 million,
Total: 112 Million
And now Sony
Ps1: 104 Million
Ps2: 157 Million
Ps3: 93 Million
Total: 354 Million
Sony has/projected 354 million for 3 consoles vs ms and Nintendos combined 380 million over 7 consoles. A defecit of approximately 26 million consoles. 8th gen so far puts sony back another combined 8 million. That means the PS4 will have to outsell xbone and wii u combined by 26 million for the 8th gen. Possible?
edit: ms and nintendo totals.
Approx 354m vs 380m excluding 8th gen totals thus far.
a 90 to 40/25 win for the 8th gen would be put them about even all together.
