so... the gap is actually not below 2 million?



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

For now, but I think that will be adjusted soon. With Microsoft's figures in, it may be closer to 3.2 million or so.

would be a big incease then and all the discussion in this thread would be completely wasted cause it would be based on an inaccurate figure.

Basically the first thing I said when I entered this thread. Looking forward to seeing Ninty and Sony numbers to see how things fully play out.

I always keep it in the back of my mind that Microsoft made it a stated goal to come out of this generation in second place, they said this way back in 2008. 


Are you sure they said second place? I definietly remember them saying they will Win this generation



All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion 

 Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

Not until VGC updates it's numbers (Assuming they do) though. And a new thread would make more sense then.

They may have said that they'd go for a win at a later date, however I remember way back in 2008 Alan Greenburg said that they were going to come in 2nd place, that was when they did their $80/50 price cut and extended the lead for about a year.

On the other hand... Coming in with first place for the generation in hand would likely require them to nearly double their LTD sales to 120M-130M. I don't think there is a plausable way for them to double the sales unless they either come in with a ridiculously cheap Arcade model OR release an Xbox 360 plus say based on one of the two chips on the Xbox 720 and delay that back to 2014, OR both.



Tease.
