By the end of 2010: Wii - 135 m PS3 - 40 m 360 - 27 m

Hi'yall, I'm back. As some of you might remember, I made that prediction back in 2006 and I think I deserve some credit here.

360: not counting replacements due to RRODs, I think my estimate was quite good.

PS3: Spot-on?

Wii: There has not been an official price drop at least here in Europe, so I don't think it's unrealistic to assume that Wii has the potential to sell tens of millions of units worldwide this year. The question is how much will the price drop be and when will it take place.

20 million off....that is not good.

Because you thought that guy said Wii will hit 35M end of 2012 even though it's over 70M lol.  But in seriousness Wii will hit 115M in shipments by end of 2012.

Ummm... so there have been more than 5 million RROD cases, and thus far MS has sold about 38 m 360 units. 38-5=33. So currently, that's about 6 million off when RRODs are excluded. And the prediction was made in 2006.

If you look at some of the other predictions made in 2006, you'll notice they're way more off. My estimates are probably 1000% closer to truth than Pachter's originals

Source for the 5 million RROD cases please.

And no MS sold 38m units. MS fixes RROD consoles and replaces them, but they don't count as sales.

At the end of 2010 there will be at least 45m 360s sold, so you're off by 18m. Probably more.

I'm sorry, but I don't have a legitimate source. I've seen the number 5 million mentioned all around the internet like here: http://xbox360.gamerscircle.net/fix-xbox-360-red-ring-of-death-error-within-an-hour

Replaced RROD consoles definitely count as sales when the replacement console is a new one. They are produced and bought by Microsoft

Wow its nice to see what people thought back in the day. Sthey thought PS3 will win even though it had a high price......

Oh well I hope no mod locks this.

I predict that this is the least they can get

Wii: 120 million 360: 58 million PS3 55 million

Let's see by 2012 if my predictions are full of fail
