Maybe 10-12 quarters like this would make the numbers.

6.3 million shipped vs thesource's prediction of 6 million shipped (OP post)

looks like an adjustment is soon to follow, again



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

Episode 1: OOPSY!

: Too Human I even expect 3-4 mill entire life and 500,000 first day. GoW2 ( expect 7 - 9 million entire life and over 2 mill first day), Fable 2 (expect 5-6 million entire life and 1.5 mill fist day) BK3 (expect 4 - 5 mill sales entire life and 1 mill first day).. Tales/IU/TLR should get to 2 or 3 million! post id: 868878
Episode 2:
Letsdance: FFXIII (PS3+360) first week in NA = 286K
According to pre-order rate in week 13 (post id: 2902544)

So does ps3 get adjusted up or down or stay the same ?

i say the ps3 has about 4 years left so they have 16 quarters to make a profit off of it

It's a mere 5% difference.  Not much reason to adjust.



the ps2 is still selling quite a bit as well

Not all the quarters are Christmas ones.

What's the amount of profit Sony needs to make with the PS3 now to make it profitable overall?



If there is an adjustment it will probably only be a small one.  But anyway, shipment gap between PS3 and 360 is now under 3 mil, with 2.9 mil.
