| coolestguyever said: i think it will be reasonable to say PS3 will be a close second to the wii this generation unless something major happens. Wii will probably win, i'll admit that, but PS3 will come close. PS3 will pass 360...no explanation needed. And the reason PS3 will come so close to the wii will be it will sell longer than the wii, the wii is hot now, but sales must slow down at some point. And just like the PS2 still sells decently now, the ps3 will sell for another 5 or 6 years strong. My predictions: 1st - Wii with about 90-95 million 2nd - PS3 with 65-70 million 3rd - 360 with 40-45 million I don't think anything will reach the 100 million barrier. At the rate its going, which is approximately 1,410,000/month...the wii would reach 100 million in 71 months (5 years 11 months approx). I think by 4 years time sales should start to decrease, and although it will be close to 100 million, it will not reach it. Then just for fun, it would take 83 months to catch PS2 if it stopped selling now which is just under 7 years of these type of sales. But of course the PS2 is still selling and should reach at least 125,000,000 and the wii will not catch it. last thing...sorry for such a long post |
You are forgetting the holidays, things such as price drops, and color changes and nintendo is upping production to 2.4 mil, and may even more if it still sells out. The reason why the ps2 is still selling is either 1 their ps2 broke which happens all the time, and 2 it's a cheap console with cheap games, and 1,000s of games to choose from. The ps3 isn't the same kind of console the ps1 and 2 were.
