Anyone seriously predicting that 360 will be dramatically ahead of Wii (by like over 200k) are going to be mistaken. This will be the first holiday where Wii is available at a $99 price point. I don't expect it to utterly dominate the holidays like it has in the past but you should still see a very large initial spike relative to its current sales level.

I like how you judge other peoples predictions yet you have PS3 doing 525k in one week in Americas when that's what it did for the entirity of last november last year. X360 being ahead by that much (given the deals and Wii not jumping ahead as much as usual) is far more likely than PS3 doing 500k in one week in Americas.


You talking about USA or Americas? My prediction is for the latter.

USA, and I check sales for the month and we have Wii flat with it's NPD numbers, 360 100k over, and PS3 200k, do I doubt the discrepency. Not to mention BF week sales are much more U.S orientaited.

Call me crazy, but I think the 360 will sell 1 million consoles or more WW on Black Friday week.

At Walmart only and you will need to spend at least $20 more for a game.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

In fairness this 199+ 2 game bundle is the absolute best deal on the ps3 that America has ever seen. By quite a wide margin too.

You are predicting the 360 this BF to be down almost 200,000 YoY? Even with way more deals this year?

I really hope 3DS sells 800k-million, but it is probably unlikely
