I think this is in response to the Xbox360 vs. PS2 thread.....atleast I think so.

Regardless I don't know but at face value I guess this thread is fine so w/e

OT: The wii is going to win this generation more than likely, barring an act of God and/or Satan.

 Probably yes, but it will be much closer (percentage wise) than what it is right now. In 2 years the Wii will not be 2x the sales of the PS3, it will be much less. At the end of the generation (in 5 years or so) I expect PS3 and Wii to be pretty close in total sales (Wii ahead by a maximum of 20%). 

 Also, I do not believe the Wii will be selling double-PS3 numbers this year. No chance at all, right now the Wii is selling about 160% the PS3 numbers and last year it was more than 200%.

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 05th Jan 2008 to 08th Mar 2008:

 Nintendo still has WiiFit and Mario Kart to launch in the first half of 2008 but the PS3 has some good titles later in the year so and I expect the PS3 to be selling on par with the Wii for the second half of the year. But we will see.

Optimistic predictions for 2008 (Feb 5 2008): Wii = 20M, PS3 = 14M, X360 = 9.5M
