Wii won this generation. Sales will continue to decline heading into next year, and Sony will be lucky to get to 85 million.

Lucky? it would be very unlucky if it didn't make past 85 million, and you can't win a generation until all consoles of that gen have stopped selling. We didn't just stop tracking the wii once the WiiU came out.

With the rumors of new consoles, people will be hesitant to buy PS3s, and their marketing isn't very good either.

Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

Are you like the John Lucas equivalent of the Sony camp?

So, what did the john lucas predict? Was he the guy with 85% marketshare for wii or the guy who predicted wii outselling the entire playstation family?

Oh, the 85% guy was Sebastian Kramer.

Some of these predictions are ridiculous. By 2017, Nintendo will have likely already launched their next console. PS3 will have been off the market for years by then unless they don't even release a PS4.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

PS3 is to be in the market over 2017 even with the release of PS4 in 2014.

The guys in this camp make the most outrageous predictions. We shall see, ethomaz.

I think my prediction is a bit optimistic but over 100 million is very very likely... and 115m I B_E_L_I_E_V_E.

Well, it looks like your HW prediction for 2012 will come true. That is if VGC is correct on the numbers. Personally, I think the max Sony can hope for is matching the PS1's sales (102M), which would still be great for such a rocky start. I definitely see it making 90M+. Either way, I hope you are proven right.

Didn't Sony announce that the PS1 had shipped 120m in it's lifetime?

OT: ~105m at best is my prediction.
