The PS3 will not catch the Wii and I've been saying so for a long time, it would need steady sales in the same region as last year for another five years or so; that's almost PS2 level of lifecycle and just isn't happening.
The Wii U will not sell 25 million either, it's just moving too slowly and has been from the beginning, it is also likely facing a rather early replacement and certainly before the other two.
The PS3 will end up somewhere north of 90 million, I think 93-94 million would be the best possible outcome. As for the Wii U; I said about 1.5 year ago that it would sell in the region of 18-25 million and this is holding true but the upper part of that number is not achieveable any longer, it has sold less than 40% of that in over 2.5 years, I think 18 million is a better target now, it could end up under that if it is relieved next holiday (which I personally believe it will be).
Time will tell, but I am 100% certain that neither will reach those figures in the OP.
