Week 10 up.

WEEK 10 UPDATE: Due to adjustments, I'm considering dropping the PS3 vs. X360+Wii+WiiU, as it's more of a beating than a heated battle (all consoles are doing better than thought).
Also, I think I'll drop the Wii vs. X360 LTD (UK) in a few weeks when 360 finally overtakes Wii, as after that it would be pretty boring. Please let me know what you think.
I may add a PS3 vs. 360 2013 SW battle.
Let me know what you think about these considerations and if you have any other suggestions.

@Troll whisperer

Wouldnt the 360 need to sale 25 million to outsell the Wii?

And if you are talking about Wii U, well there's Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate & Lego City Undercover & Pikmin 3 & Bayonetta 2 & etc. for these next 60 days

In the UK, it's in the title. That battle will be over soon, I'll remove it in 2-3 weeks when it finally happens.

Bump, I'd like more people to comment or at least vote.

I see a lot of people are saying the PSV will outsell the Wii U, yet I see nothing to support this theory outside of a pretty OK price cut for the Vita in Japan, followed by arguably it's biggest game since launch.

Also, does this now include adjustments, and will it in the future?

I believe WiiU will handily beat PSV tbh. But it's close now so it's fun to watch.

Yes, this includes adjustments. it was a pain to re-enter all the data... I will update it as long as there is demand, which I'm not sure about atm.

The number of views is pretty healthy, it's just comments don't seem to be for whatever reason. 

It'd be cool if you were to keep this going but, well it's up to you really. For now it's still pretty good to see!

This thread is looking pretty good. Tagging.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Looks like people have altered their opinions since my thread

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

 jarrod said:The Xbox360 or ps3 will not sell more than 75million units

July 2009 daveJ said: True 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

I would like to add to this discussion that:

The PS Vita has been out more then a Year and only sold 4.4 million, while the Wii U has been out for only 4 months and has sold 2.7 million

It seems that the Wii U is only 1.8 million away from outselling the Vita right now. With a fraction of the time.
