| Shadow1980 said: Well, I'm predicting about 18 million Wii U units sold and about 35-37.5 million XBOs sold globally. That will put combined GC, Wii, and Wii U sales at 139.74 million and assuming the 360 sells 85 million lifetime, combined Xbox, 360, and XBO sales at 144-146.5 million. However, this is ignoring the next generation. I think a likely scenario is Nintendo's ninth-gen system being released in 2017 and the ninth-gen Xbox (if there is one) being released in 2018. I'm projecting less than 30 million XBO units being sold by the end of 2017, which would put combined Xbox brand hardware sales at less than 140 million. If Nintendo's ninth-gen system is released in 2017 and has a good launch and solid first-year sales, that would widen the gap in Nintendo's favor. It will then come down to whether Nintendo's next system proves to be a better global sales force than MS's. |
360 is already at 84.8m shipped, so that would mean they ship 200k this Q and discontinue! 360 will get to 90m+ over next few years.
