Forums - Sales - PS2 Vs. NDS Gap Chart

I would like to see the PS3 vs. Wii in Japan. Just because the PS3 has made up a lot of ground there against the Wii. It's hard to predict whether the PS3 will overtake the Wii, but it I think it is interesting to see how it is doing. PS3 dominated the Wii in 2011 (Japan). With 2012 having the launch of the Wii U it could be another dominating year for the PS3 and who knows how much the Wii's lead will drop by the end of the year.

I hope I did this right.

Have you done the math though? PS3 would have to be flat in Japan for the next 3 years, to even match the current Wii sales. Even though Wii is doing slowly (will do 850k~ for the year) it's still gonna add to its total. The earliest looks to be late 2015, even that requires something unheard of in the gaming industry. PS3 will be flat yoy in Japan with a price cut and decent SW in Q4, I really can't see a cut propelling it much higher next year ...

Mm, I appreciate it, even if you missed this bit 'realistic chances of it happening, I'm going to need a good argument to add Wii Vs. PS3 - Japan for instance.'

And I took a stance that shows it would be an interesting chart to see. The Wii has been above the PS3 a handful of weeks in 2011. 2012 will be even worse than this year. That's two very strong years for Sony's "failure" system.

That's nice, doesn't really address the realistic part though.

Maybe in a year if PS3 hasn't fallen in Japan by much I'll think about it.

3DS versus DS pace (aligned launches) and 3DS versus Wii (idem) (record holder up to 50m+).

 This is a good idea, Seece.
