I was laughed at when I predicted that the 3DS could sell 28 million it's first year, so expect people to think that you just left a psychiatric hospital.

It will outsell NGP 2.5:1

Now you just need to ask yourself how much the NGP will sell. My bet is 40-50M.

The best out of this thread are the guys who actuallyt believe he is talking serious. Guys, we are talking about Chibi here. Isn't that enough to give you a clue?

Above: still the best game of the year.

You do know that optimism is like a disease on this site. I am surprised that no one posted this:

Can't believe how much some of you wish it would fail, :P. Under DS, really? Save for the inexistent threat that is the iOS device family, nothing indicates that it'll do less than DS.

This is like DS, except with awesome features, third party support and the world's largest userbase on its back. And competition (not iOS, NGP) that isn't nearly as strong as before.

...300m is a really funny joke, though. More like 200-225m.

Whilst there is nothing to say it will sell less. there is nothing to say it will sell more ;D And what statistics do you have to say the NGP wont outsell it? im not saying it will. but we have all been proven wrong before that basing sales on the success of past events doesnt work.

Read the bolded.

And, mind you, NGP, from what we know of it, doesn't even do something new. All other times when a new leader has arisen, there's been a reason. NES - Harsh publishing regulations, collapsing industry. (Genesis, if it counts, released early and had what I'd say was the most effective marketing in the history video gaming, not to mention Sonic) PS1 - Optical media, "mature" games. Wii - "Casual" games.

The NGP is doing nothing radical and, historically, a generation only becomes more exaggerated than the last unless something drastic is done to prevent it. And I'm being nice in this argument by allowing home consoles because, in handhelds, the only rule that has gone so far is "Nintendo wins", simple as that.

how do you know the competition isnt a strong as before/ the only games we have announce are from what a 45 min conference? yh because they going to anounce 10 million games in that time xD

And the NGP is a psp with loads of fealy awesome featurs :P

Finally the ps3 had a fanbase of over 100 million from ps2 ;) didnt help them much. Why help know? I do believe that 3ds will outsell the NGP but not the 10:1 figure you said in a different thread xD i think more like 100 million 3DS and 60 - 70 million NGP.

Yeah i know my spelling sucks but im dysgraphic so live with it :3

There's Not Even That Many Gamers, Total Up The Home Cosoles And The DS Console It Only Reaches Just Barely 320 Million And Since More Than Half Have Home Base And Portable Consoles The Total Gamers Are Much Smaller.
