And soon PS3 will be best selling console in 2011:

Worldwide Hardware
Console Yearly (change) Total
DS 1,351,437 (-94%) 145,315,220
PS3 1,348,183 (-91%) 47,694,039
Wii 1,334,155 (-93%) 84,993,939
X360 1,258,268 (-91%) 51,646,909
PSP 772,549 (-92%) 66,159,124
PS2 357,224 (-92%) 142,015,583
Total 6,421,816(-92%)  


I don't know about that. The 3DS comes out in Japan next week on Sat - Feb 26. So I honestly don't expect the the PS3 to lead the way in 2011. The XBox 360 is also outselling it worldwide overall.


That's data for 12th February so after 19th PS3 will be on top before 3DS releases ;)

360 #1...Yes! I am just happy that nobody can use that statistical tie crap LOL(I don't care about PSP &DS.)

Overall, the 360 does deserve it...I don't own one but Microsoft has done an amazing job with Kinect making it the next big thing. I have played it and it is fun...I just think they should upgrade it a little bit. If it could read fingers and other things...well, it could be even bigger.

PS3 is doing good though 360 put a gap in between them this week. Japan #'s impress me.

Wii is doing fine IMO considering it is now facing Move and Kinect and has had nothing big since New Super Mario Bros. Wii and nothing new since Motion Plus. Wii should be able to hold its own until Nintendo acts with a Price Cut or the Vitality Sensor.

<10% statistical tie, narf

It will be able to read fingers soon. It's going to be able to recognize facial expressions including eye brows, lips and eyes, which is pretty amazing.

The Wii just need more great exclusive titles. Mario Sports Mix isn't going to cut it. I'm still waiting for Mario Golf, Kid Icarus (Wii), Star Fox and the new Zelda game. Nintendo did great at the end of last year. They delivered the goods for the holidays and won E3 handily. It doesn't seem like they prepared for Spring & Summer 2011 for the Wii. I think they are strictly concentrating on 3DS for Spring and Summer this year.

I wonder why Ps2 its 142M and has 150M shipped... 8M on Shelves seems impossible.

It IS impossible.  The site heads just don't seem very interested in getting PS2 right, I guess because it is last gen or something.

Maybe. It only sold 13K more then the DS and even if it does go on top, it will be short lived. It's still not going to "lead the way" for 2011. That's the point I was making. Being in the lead for 1 week is irrelevant.

It will have around 1500k next week, 1650k on 26th IIRC that's more than whole 3DS shipment for Japan.

And DS sales are going to collapse ever futher with 3DS launch getting closer.

The 360 is outselling the PS3 in the Americas in a way that it makes up the difference, but around the world, the PS3 is outselling the 360 (that means in multiple regions).

My shock comes from seeing the Wii in (literally) last place. I've never seen a market leader down like that, but then again, this is an odd gen. The PS3 & 360 had a mid-gen upkick thanks to Kinect/Move & slimmer and/or redesigned models with price cuts, while the Wii has had to rely on just one price cut and a few bundles/new colors here or there.

However, if you take in the fact that the Wii still has a commanding lead, the situation looks very different.

It had a supernova first few years, and then, at least compared to itself, has started to plummet sharply.  If it wasn't for the holidays....

However, the lack of support and only the Ninty games can only hold up for so long.  They basically released Mario and hadthat carry them for like a year.  DK didn't have the same impact.

For some reason I missed the Kinect upgrade announcement LOL...I heard that a Kinect upgrade was rumored but I didn't know they announced it yet. Well...in that case Kinect will continue to push 360 systems and 360 should remain #1(Home Systems) until Nintendo makes a move...if they make a move LOL. 

All of the games you talked about for the Wii have potential to push some systems but IMO none of them will be HUGE

Zelda won't be HUGE either IMO...it should be Donkey Kong Country Returns big and the "Core" will love it but it won't keep Wii on top. They should release Vitality Sensor or something else that is different and unique if Vitality Sensor was canceled.(I still think we will see it at GDC) Right now the Wii looks like it has nothing to many people(Core & Casual) and Nintendo needs something to get people to look at the Wii again as right now Kinect is in the spotlight in the eyes of many.



This has to be one of the strangest weeks ever this gen... PSP is going berserk in Japan!    (actually just like 360 has gone for the last months in USA and UK)
