Xbox 360 came 1 year before PSVita so we should compare sale between this two consoles in same timeframe.



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Congrats to Sony for pluging away at the gap and getting it to where it is now. And wow, I know this site has more PS3 supporters then 360 supporters, but the latter sure try to do a job of dismantling any negative talk towards MS.

This is a sales website for people wanting to discuss "sales". Love it or leave it! No PS3 supporter came in to derail the threads that the 4-5 360 fans made last christmas about catching up to PS3 in yearly sales. So why is it so hard for this people to stop whining and crying over this thread and posting links from predictions or opinions 5 years or more ago. Or better yet, the great response of "ohh ahh it doesn't matter, it doesn't mater the gen is over" Who cares if the gen is almost over, we are still tacking sales every week so therefore we can talk about it whenever we want. Seriously these forums are so sad these last few years.

(look at your profile)

sure,sure

Gotta laugh at the 'sales don't matter anymore ' band that marched into this thread! Of course they matter, why are the majority of us on this website? For the news articles and reviews? Of course not! We're here for the sales.

Well sales of the gamecube, xbox and PS2 dont matter anymore....  (I realise the PS2 is amost like a mother to many here so it matters to them).  And its always been like that, when the PS3 was being humiliated earlier in its like, sales diodnt matter becasue it was all about the quality of the games and the diversity of the games and the... and the.... 

Sales of the DS and PSP don't matter any more as far as I am concerned.

The only interesting ones at the moment for me are PSV and 3DS

This gen is almost last gen.  Last gen doesn't interest me as far as sales are concerned.. never has, it didnt as soon as the 360 released and this gen wont interest me as soon as the WiiU releases.

I'm sure some people will be talking and debating the ongoing sales of the 360, PS3 and Wii long after the WiiU releases, 720 and PS4 release... I wont.

That's because the positioning of the consoles in those generations were known and/or the consoles aren't selling much anymore. There was nothing to discuss. Everything was set in stone except the PS2's lifetime sales, which did "matter" this generation. 

During this gen, sales of the PS2 did "matter". There were still threads popping up about the PS2 whenever it passed a new milestone (100m, 110m, 120m etc.). It was the only thing worth talking about from last gen. If the Xbox had been near the PS2 in sales, you can bet your ass that people would been have speculating their sales. (can Xbox pass PS2? Who will reach 120m first?).

Do you remember the threads speculating if and when the DS could pass the PS2.

The PS3 and 360, however, are still selling a lot and the order of them are still unknown. You would think people, espescially on this site, would be interested in speculating when either would take the lead and pull off.

And what does "don't matter" even mean? When the Wii U launches, the PS3 and X360 fanbase will still be active and consoles will still be sold at a healthy rate. It'll still be an active topic worth discussing. When the PS4/720 launches, then maybe the PS360 sales will die down and become less worthy of discussion, but if they continue to see fairly high sales, then it's still be worth discussing if & when the PS3 surpasses the X360.

Even during the next gen, people will STILL be talking about PS2 sales.

Just saying.

Yup, And if it had a close competitor (like Ps3 & 360), pepole would be talking about if said competitor could takeover.
