JWeinCom said: At the current rate that its selling, it will take the PS3 3.4 years to catch up to the Wii. This is assuming not a single Wii is sold. But, if the Wii keeps selling at its current rate, it will add about 4,000,000 to its total. So, if both systems continue to sell at the current rate, it will take the PS4 about 4 years. Of course the systems will not continue to sell at the current rates. PS3 will probably dip more than the Wii, because the Wii simply doesn't have very far to drop. If Wii sales drop to zero and PS3 sales average 80,000, it will take 5 years for the PS3 to catch the Wii. If it averages 50,000 per week, it will take 8.8 years to catch the Wii. So... I don't really see that happening. The PS3 isn't going to have as long of a post PS4 life as the PS2 did post PS3. The PS2 basically had no opposition. The X-Box and Gamecube were essentially dead once the next generation of consoles arrives. The Wii and X-Box 360 still have some decent life left in them. |
Well... FY2012: 77 million FY2013: 89 million (12 million shipped) FY2014: 99 million (10 million shipped) FY2015: 106 million (7 million shipped) FY2016: 111 million (5 million shipped) FY2017: 113 million (2 million shipped) Is that too hard? You can remove 1 million per year if you think I'm optimistic... 108 million shipped... I can't see Wii topping that. |
Then you absolutely should take my bet. If PS3 overtakes Wii (max until 2020) you win, I win if it does not. What do you say, deal?
So many people here say it is doable or even likely, but nobody will take my bet. You all should better BELI3VE!
