Knowing that the console generation win is just around the corner Sony management have every right to take it easy. MGS 4 release will see PS3 sell over 300k consoles weekly. PS3 could even reach 30 million consoles sold worlwide by 31/12/08
Are you kidding? Please tell me that's sarcasm. The console generation win is just around the corner for Sony? Try 2nd place win is around the corner. The PS3 has absolutely no chance of overtaking this generation from Nintendo and anyone who thinks differently obviously isn't using the tools this site provides and is just cruising the forums aimlessly.

 

And anyone who believes that obviously hasn't looked at the major titles coming up, and the bright future ahead of the PS3. Honestly, what good games does the Wii have coming to it? SSBB already came out, all that's left for this year is Mario Kart, the rest aren't any big deal.

Now I'm not saying the PS3 will, but it can, look at 360 fanboys, they thought their console would reign king over the PS3, sales numbers say otherwise. Anything can happen, the Wii and PS3 are only 16 months into their minimum 5 year life.

 

The difference between the Wii and the PS3 is simple. The PS3 needs good titles to sell the console. The Wii has consistently outsold both competitors in weeks where no titles of any importance were released on it. The Wii sells itself. The thing is, no one knows how popular the Wii really is because they still to this day can't get supply under control, so for all you know the Wii could be selling almost twice as much if they ramp up production. Obviously the still inflated eBay and craigslist prices for Wii's both new and used should tell you something. I firmly believe the PS3 will surpass the 360 and will probably beat it lifetime by 10-20 million, but the Wii is a whole other story. You're better off arguing whether the Wii will surpass the PS2, not the PS3. Even if the PS3 picks up steam, that doesn't mean the Wii will stop selling because their main targets are two different markets.

Also, shame on you for not remembering Wii Fit as a major player this year. As far as no other titles, speak to me after E3 when I guarantee you eat those words. You can put that in your sig as a reminder if you wish and we'll bring it back up in the Summer.
