Forums - Sales Discussion - Worldwide Hardware Numbers UP for week of Black Friday

Soonerman on 04 December 2009

I'm not surprised PS3 beat the Xbox 360 by that much. I didn't see any packages worth while for the 360 during Black Friday

PS3 will have 2 or 3 weeks of 1 million+ consoles sales weeks in December 2009. Bring on December 2009 sales.

a bit too optmistic, isn't it?



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

 And with a huge black friday, the PS3 finally tops the PS2 in sales!!!! (from the PS3 launch date)

 

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 05th Nov 2006 to 28th Nov 2009:

Console PS3 PS2
Total
27,803,638
27,553,800

 

 

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

It is someone messing with you. PS3 vs. PS2 for that time period. The PS2 way outperformed the PS3 during 2006 (PS3 launch year)

ok thanks nordlead

because I found it impossible to believe PS2 did that good

PS2 did do good, just before the current generation really took over. Heck, the X360 hasn't sold more than the PS2 since it launched.

PS2 = 41.8m units, X360 = 34.1m

However, the X360 launched while the PS2 was stronger so it's goal will always be tougher to accomplish than the PS3




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Last year's sales numbers for December. This year the PS3 should easily outsell the 360 by a lot more than the 360 outsold the PS3.

Not trying to start shit up but I really want to know how much does the Wii have to outsell the HD twins every week/month to get to %50 market share and how long realistically is gonna take depending on current trends ?

The same thing for PS3 achieving %25 market share ?

The gap between the Wii and PS3+360 combined is 3.56 million (i.e. smaller than the gap between PS3 and 360).

For PS3 to get 25%, it has to sell one third of Wii and 360 combined. Right now the gap is 3 million.

 

I'd add that the current trend is for the Wii marketshare to decrease, so the answer to the second question would be "infinite time".

Over the last 10 weeks we had

Console Wii PS3 X360
Total
4,728,270
3,034,538
2,075,725

which amount to 48%, 31%, and 21% of the total sales respectively and show the recent trend. If we project the data from these last 10 weeks in the future - which is not realistic, of course - the PS3 would reach 25% in about 50 weeks.

Very nice ps3 sales, Ds is beast can´t beleive it sold 1 million only in US.

DS sales are amazing. Brilliant handheld, too. In fact, it's almost reached GB's lifetime sales point. How long did it take GB to reach 120million? 10 years?

But... but... but... I thought Wii was doomed...
