Just as a fun demonstration of how even near unanimous agreement on a prediction can turn out to be wrong:

PS3 - 33,843,353
Wii - 33,682,245

EDIT: Trucks said the necrobump was okay, honest

Thanks for the bump Kantor. I can't even remember making this prediction, so it has been fun re-reading this thread. 

When I made this prediction, just over 7 years ago, Europe counted as 'Others'. 

I also predicted in this thread that they would both sell between 35 - 40 million, so I was just a tad high on that. 

I knew the only thing holding the PS3 back in Europe was the price, and it's nice to be proven correct :P

What a thread. 14 years ago... I feel old now.

It's always interesting looking through old threads like this and seeing how many posters are still active.

Damn, what a blast from the past! OP: Did you have a Sackboy avatar waaaaay back when? I think I remember you from those days.

Apologies, I didn't know there was a rule on this!

Damn, seems we both have great memory! It's always cool to rediscover veterans from the golden age!
