yea they can release those games, final fantasy, dragon quest, resident evil, castlevania, and every other franchise in the world but PS3 won't pass 360 in 08, do people actually do the math when they predict these things?

There are several things wrong with this post:

 1. since when can you get away with saying "Ok, it's fun, but..."?

 2. Price is nowhere near the only thing that sells Wii.  It has awesome games, and has by far the most casual appeal, not just because of price, but becaues of form factor, positive press, and many other things.

 3. The day the PS3 is $249 is the day Wii is $99 or less.

The way I see it Xbox 360 will continue to lose marketshare because of its irrelevance in Europe and Japan.

If those 2 regions become PS3 strongholds, then the 360 will be in deep shit. Especially since America is the main reason the 360 has the advantage it has at this moment.

I wouldn't be surprised if the PS3 would outnumber the 360 in the european region once MGS4 makes a strike of lightning there.

That's because when it comes to the hardware you are getting the worst deal with the Wii while PS3 and Xobox360 you are getting more for your money. Nintendo starting making money from the beginning since the Wii is a little more than a sup up gamecube with a new controller.

In another words you are really getting rip off when it comes to hardware with the Wii. Because of Xbox360 is a strong conpetition with PS3 and Ps3 with Xobox360 we have already seen price drops for these systems. Thus when these rich companies have to compete gamers win.

Who is bashing the Wii? I'm only stating a simple fact. Even Wii fans have claimed here that the Big N could lower it's price of the Wii to $149 easily. I find nothing wrong with the new controller.

 No its because people like simplicity, they don't want to have to choose between 4 SKUS, they just want to pick it up take it home and play

 the wiimote is what is selling the wii, not the price

 why do u think 100s of thousands, if not 1mil+ have sold for 350/400+ on ebay/craigslist/etc?

 people want wii because of the controls

 i argue that the 360/ps3 are using dated hardware....graphics aren't the holy grail after all

as for market share, 360 will continue to decline and ps3 won't increase very much

wii should be around 45mil in one year while 360 + ps3 combined won't be 45 million

so wii will have over 50% marketshare, which leaves 360/ps3 sharing
