Are you purposely trying to predict the PS3 high so that it can fail hard at the end of the year?

Sony has final fantasy 13-2 ,ps3 japan sale will skyrocket

Hmm,mm vgchartz seems to still be failing to count xbox 360s sold correctly. Kind of shocking in light of the recent 200k NPD debacle. Regardless, we will see next week when microsoft announces a BIG shipped number. I'm confident vgchartz will get it right eventually

Nintendo will miss their projection by about 5M, next quarterly report they will adjust it down a lot. It's looking like it will do about 9M-10M this year.

The other guy is talking about sales of combined hardware and self-published software of all systems while the not-other guys are as usual  talking about hardware of consoles and debate things like which console will be in what place for the year. VGC gospel choir: "The Wii, the Wii, it's all about the Wii and its dramatic decline (and let's not forget it's overtracked)".

- Combined console/handheld hardware: Nintendo still in the lead this year - Nintendo sold 11.9 million hardware units in the first half of 2011, Sony sold 9.3 million hardware units.
- Combined published software on console/handhelds: Nintendo still in the lead this year - actually already after six months 8 million ahead of EA, 18 million ahead of Activision, 21 million ahead of Sony, 26 million ahead of Microsoft.

Even though I was told that Nintendo hardware is overtracked and that software doesn't matter in these threads, I repeat:

Nothing has changed. Nintendo is still by far the most successful company this year.

I'm sorry if my view is controversial and I apologize for not following the unwritten VGC community law of only looking at yearly/monthly hardware numbers.

As l'm always open for compromises let's just conclude that the important VGC consensus opinions on last week's sales posted in this thread are "Wii price cut effect already wearing off", "Wii will be 3rd this year (and don't forget it's overtracked)" and "Kratos still rules".

Any equal price cut will favor the ps3, the 360 already has a model thats 100 less and ps3 is the one comming out with the games, 360s got next to nothing this year, there's no way 360 will sell the most this year 

that makes sense, my R button stopped working but i fixed it

haha you forgot that there is plenty of room for a price cut with the Kinect+360 bundles. Those WILL make a difference, especially in the holiday season.
and please don't tell me that Halo Remake, Gears of War 3 and Forza 4 + bunch of Kinect games like Kinect Sports Season 2 and Dance Central 2 will attract less consumers than Uncharted 3, Resistance 3 and Twisted Metal (and other games I may have forgotten to mention at this point).

infamous deserves so many more sales.

Everyone who cares about halo or gears has a 360 already, and no I didn't forget it just doesn't matter, there's a reason kinect sales have been droping consistently it sucks people are starting to realize there aren't any good games for it, and from what I've seen there aren't going to be anytime soon, a price cut isn't going to change that, kinect is all MS has to drive sales and it's already running out of steam, and I know you forgot about the psmove, which sales are far more stable then kinects, Sony could cut the price of the move bundle and match it and again any equal price cut will favor the ps3 because it has more features and better games and is just a better piece of hardware
