Whipped this up in Excel, though some of you might find it useful/interesting



I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?

Look at just the line for the Xbox 360. It's crashing.  I wonder how much longer that can continue.

Who makes it to 25% market share first: Sony from below, or MS from above?



CrashMan on 14 February 2008

Some other stats:

Linear average (which you can't really do with % market share stats, but w/e)

360 Average: - .41%/week
PS3 Average: .13%/week
Wii Average: .28%/week

So on Average (which you can't really do with %Market Share stats as well, but w/e):

360 would hit 25% in 25 weeks
PS3 would hit 25% in 35 weeks
Wii would hit 50% in 25 weeks

This is actually a simple math problem.

If Nintendo cannot reach or maintain more than 50% market share, then Sony would have to hit 25% first -- it's a necessary mark to pass to push MS below 25%.   If Nintendo breaks 50% market share, MS will hit 25% first -- it's a necessary mark as Sony approaches 25%.

The numbers all depend on whether Nintendo can break 50% and maintain it as the PS3 inevitably surpasses the 360.  If Nintendo breaks 50%, Microsoft hits 25% before Sony.   If Nintendo cannot break 50%, Sony hits 25% before Microsoft.
