TEN YEARS!?!??!?!?


Sorry, I know I have to respect your opinion, but I made it VERY clear in another post that 10 years is IMPOSSIBLE.

Well, the exact totals are anyone's guess, but it's VERY unlikely that the Wii won't win this generation. I know PS3 fans will mention MGS, GT5, KZ2, and whatnot, but get real, Nintendo also has plenty of tricks left up its sleeves.

I'd say Wii has 90% chance of winning, PS3 7% and 360 has 3% chance of getting first.

 That's my point. The few remaining people who think the PS3 will win this gen sound like the few remaining people in 2002 who thought the Gamecube would win. "Oh, but the Cube is getting Mario, Smash Bros., Mario Kart, and RE4! After that, welcome to NINTENDOMINATION, Sony fanbois!!"

A few big games do not domination make.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Avinash, you're kidding yourself if you think Wii is going to sell like that.

And also, the 78 thing was a typo, I'll change it, it was supposed to be 58.

Well its a tough call, cause there are multiple scenarios that could put either Wii or PS3 in first, but Wii definetly does have the best chance. So I don't know if I can say for sure yet but I do know that Wii can't get last, and 360 can't get first. I guess I'll just give my most likely scenario:

1. Wii- 90 million

2. PS3- 60 million

3. 360- 35 million

But once again this is the most likely scenario, but not the only one. I don't have enough data to accurately give my answer with full confidence.

I think Wii will still be in the lead in 2011, PS3 and 360 will basically be a tie.

Wii is easy to eaxplain, it is still selling like crazy and once the best new thing effect wears off then it will be too large of an install base for any one to catch up.

360 and PS3 have both lost there luster among the general public for high tech. 360 will soon be in mass market pricing and PS3 has Bluray movies which will probably get more popular as HDTV become more common in the average household.

2011
Wii - 100mil
PS3 - 50 mil
360 - 45 mil



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
