| superchunk said: Why do analyst always talk about the slow pace of ps1/2 as compared to ps3. I think the situations are completely different For one the ps1 was the first time sony created a game machine. Of course it was a little slow out the gates. By the time the real competitor N64 showed up, the ps1 had a substantial lead. The PS2 was first out the gates and did not have that slow of a start. It's WW numbers were more like Wii's now, obviously greater than PS3 or PS1. All you can do is have your best guesses. Mine are below and as far as WW end of gen stuff, I kinda agree with Source's mostly. |
Plus PS2 had a staggered launch for all three territories, first Japan, then NA, then Europe, PS3 was released in japan and NA at around the same time, and then staggered for Europe
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
