So by the end of the year, I would expect the final numbers to look like:
PS3 - 10.25m (~70.75m TOTAL)
360- 8m (~71.75 TOTAL)
Wii - 5.75m (~100.65m TOTAL)

3DS - 11.5m
Vita - 6m
PS3 will nab second place by the time the fiscal year ends in March 2013 I reckon.......

Too low for PS3 and 360. Sony themselves are predicting shipments of 13m for the fiscal year, 360 will be big this holiday.

You know i really do not know if the 360 will be that big at christmas because if the current sales are any indication the 360 is on a downward slide.  Of course all consoles are on the down.  The only thing this christmas that can make the 360 big is Halo 4 but i don't even know if that will help because I feel like most of the people that will want Halo 4 should already have a 360.

Halo 4 and a pending price cut. Cod, kinect etc. Big in America at least, but not as big as last year. So I'd say around 10-11m for 360 and 12-12.5m for PS3

The new $99 360 with kinect and 2 year subscription may be MS's solution to a price cut because normally a company announces a price cut at an event like E3 or Gamescom.  And seeing as E3 is over and I think MS is not going to Gamescom, I don't see when they will announce one.  They could do it at Comic-con or just make there own press release, but idk.  But I'd say overall your numbers are probably gonna be pretty close 



3DS is the only system that isn't doing a nose dive. Actually, that's not true. The Vita isn't doing a nosedive since it was stillborn.

Nice charts. SW charts would be really interesting, too.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll see what I can come up with. Busy this weekend and next (two trips), but I'll keep it in mind.

Eh? 3DS would have to drop pretty hard to end under 14m for the year. At this point if it just matches what it sold Jul–Dec last year, it'll be close to 15m. Considering last July it averaged under 85k/week WW, and it hasn't dropped under 115k for any week since the price drop, we're looking at a minimum increase of 120k over last year for July.

You would expect August to be tough to beat due to the price drop, but with a new model and NSMB2 coming I think it'll at least be close.

I fear that Bane mask in your avatar has ruined your breathing...hence the lack of oxygen getting to your brain, cutting off LOGICAL capabilities in there. I'm being conservative. Everyone is spiraling downward fast these days.

Just cause Sony wants 13m doesn't mean they'll get it (without a price drop).

So you think they'll be ~3m off target? Who lacks the oxygen again . My mask supplies me with extra oxygen

Wouldn't that make you high?



The PS3 will very likely have a new model so I don't think it will be hard to reach 13m as they expect. An X360 price cut or new bundles is a bit overdue too.
