Got these numbers of vgchartz from March of Last year to March of This year th PS3 has Sold close to 9 million units. Sony has repeatedly stated that they want the PS3 to Last 10 years. This is when at least for me the only real notable game that came out for it was Devil May Cry 4. Many of the most hyped PS3 Games after Metal Gear Solid 4 don't come out until this fall or Winter. I see no problem taking a lower number then the actual sales data for PS3 for the past year and spreading it out for another nine years

Console PS3
Total 8,924,441

Even if it gets support, it doesn't mean it will sell 10 years. Sony can promise 10 years of support, but it can't promise ten years of sales. Besides, looking at the sales patterns of losing and winning consoles, sales will decline over time. Maybe it would still sell in 2016, but we are talking about just few consoles a year, which doesn't make financially any sense to anyone in the chain. You could say, that as long as Sony can keep up cutting price and make new different kind of bundles, it will keep up struggling, but 50M LT will be a decent achievement for PS3. Sure it will get few killer apps, but so does its competitors.
