Forums - Sales Discussion - Wii and PS3 gaining market share, 360 losing it

omgwtfbbq on 03 January 2008

The 360 has been losing market share every single week from the launch of the PS3. With the exception of a couple of weeks around the Halo 3 launch



Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

It's amazing that Nintendo is beating the other two on large scale proportions with only ONE SKU!!! PS3 has had 4 skus since launch and 360 will get it's 5th sku soon. (xbox ultimate) yet nintendo murdered with only one sku!! now that's saying something!!!



Damn things have changed since 2009 began. Here are my new visions for the end of the generation.

 

Wii: 135 mil

Ps3: 85 mil

360: 60 mil

360 is likely to top out between 25-35 million consoles LT, PS3 around 28-38 million consoles LT (both are undertracking the PSP), and Wii, well going by current trends, we could be looking at 200-300 million (considering its selling about 25% faster than the DS)



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

ps3 is about to overtake 360 by xmas 08...

A more meaningful comparison would be, assume all consoles launched at the same time, graph their marketshare. Or, assume that the 360 started at 0 units when the PS3 and Wii launched, and graph their marketshare. These would both be flawed models, but far less misleading than being concerned about the 360 losing marketshare when it started at 100%.

Wasn't PS3 at 20.6% before this week?

One day or the other, the wii will pay the price of its dated hardware.
OK, fun, etc...
But right now, it works because competition is priced above mass market appeal. I may change completely the day (quite far i guess) when ps3 will be priced @ $249.
