I believe it doesnt really matter what it ends up selling because it will still end up being less successful than the PS1, PS2, Wii and the Xbox 360 in many ways.

what i really think will help PS3 sell after PS4 launches is PSN, there is no reason why indie developers would stop supporting PSN and making games for it. PS3 in a couple of years could be bought for 99$ and used to play indie games that cost about 5/10 bucks each. i think this will help move consoles after PS4 is launched and sony drops support. as for your prediction, i dont think so, maybe but i would say 95~105 million life time

I think that when they release GOW4, UC4, KZ4 for the PS4.  With crazy AAA quality gameplay, graphics, and story.   People that did not had a PS3 will be intrigued on how the previous games were. So I think Sony will need to release a bundle with a PS3 + GOW Saga + Uncharted TRilogy + KZ collection; all of that for $100 :D. And it will sell like crazy.


your avatar is brutal, cheerful and disturbing all at the same time.

i dont think that will sell a lot in 2/3 years. that logic certainly didnt help the original xbox. halo 3 sold way better than halo1/2 and people didnt seem all that interested in playing the first two. even when they did a remake, it sold well, but not halo numbers. about 1.5 million. those people most probably are the people who played halo before and brought the remake for the good memories they had with the original. i think the same logic applies to your suggestion, a bundle like that would certainly help sales, but i dont think by a significat amount

Yeah.  Kratos killed all his family so he can not be with them in Christmas D: But he can still give some presents to the kids, while doing what he does best.

He is......The Santa of War. LMAO! XD

I have no doubts the PS3 will win this gen, but 115 might be 5 million to much, see my sig I predicted this back in 2009.
I predict its sales next year will be even better than this year, much stronger game lineup and probably a pricecut, though this depends on the YEN.

sales will not increase next year.

heres what you said a few days ago about PS3's black friday weeks sales

They will both be down.  I didnt say the 360 wouldnt.  People here think the PS3 will be up... zero chance of that.

now you were totally wrong with that, Im thinking you will be this time as well 

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

July 2009 daveJ saidTrue the wii has a large lead now but by 2017 the most likely result will be 1. ps3 2. xbox360 3. wii <-- wii's successor launched in 2011 effectively killing sales of the wii

 2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales

It might hit 90 mil, maybe 95, but i doubt even 100 mil. The next gen consoles are going to kill it, and the cheaper alternatives like the 360 and Wii are going to give it an even harder time; The Wii in particular is going to eventually hit around 50-80 dollars with bundles, and the casuals are going to snap it up. The core gamers will already have moved on to the major consoles by 2014 and only a few nitpickers or late to the party gamers will really bother with it.



Games are fun.

I agree. 95-100m but not 115



Yay!!!

Aren't you the same guy who predicted the PSV would sell 770k worldwide last week?

the ps3 was down wasn't it?  Last year they did something like 900k and this year they are around 700k... that is down right?
