sony went from 120 mill ps2's vs 25 mill xbox's
to 11 mill ps3's vs 18 mill 360's
so even if at the end of this generation the score would be
60 mill ps3 vs 30 mill 360's
sony still will have lost a tremendous amound of market share

You act like Xbox did it. It was 100% Nintendo.

Both of you make the mistake of using the past tense. Ain't over by a long shot. And the console w/ the longest life will of course be PS3. I'm not claiming anything specific about sales, here. It's just that if Sony doesn't quite reach the ABSOLUTE DOMINATION with PS3 that it did with PS2....oh well, hey Microsoft, look at Sony: that's how you make LOTS and LOTS of money with gaming consoles.

Can Wii beat PS2 numbers? Probably not.

Look, I like Nintendo, just.......this isn't completely a zero sum game. There will be tons and tons of PS3/Wii dual owners (far mor than 360/Wii by gen-end), and at least 10 million 360 owners (incl. future ones) will buy a PS3 at some later point in time, after 360 is buried and unsupported.


I'm sorry but that is 100% LOL material right there.


 Just watch. A PS3 at $299 with the big games is going to give the Wii a serious run for its crown. If the PS3 can sell on par with the Wii for the rest of this generation starting August or September, the 12,000,000 between them wont matter much. As far as third party support the Playstation brand will still be first in mind. The PS3 doesn't need to beat the Wii to remain a household name and guarantee the #1 spot next gen. It just needs to keep pace while still providing better games.
