Same. The 28% probably comes from their predicted decline in Nintendo sales/the neXbox's growth gen on gen.

If they really expect that there will be 385M home consoles sold by the time gen 9 starts things are going to be fun this gen.

Certainly interesting figures. I wonder how they predict the growth? Because with Nintendo dropping by dozens of millions, Sony and MS will have to sell a LOT for that growth to happen. They're basically predicting PS2 level sales for both


Hm.. Sony only predicted both consoles to sell around 90 million too with the WiiU coming in at a respectable 50 million yet they expect around 3 times this? (the WiiU). Microsoft... so damn ambitious. I'd usually trust there knowledge of business to over Sony's but it does seem a bit of a stretch.
