I'm sure the PS3, like every PlayStation home console before, will have some mighty impressive legs. I have no idea how many Units will be sold when all is said and done though.

Were there really people thinking it will top Wii?
Ps4 with the better start might not beat the Wii.

Even if the PS3 will have some "legs", it still won't outsell the Wii.. It simply seems impossible at this point!

No, I don't think it has a chance to do it. If they'd cut the price in 2014 (by a lot), then I think it may have had a slight chance, but it's too late now, momentum is gone.

It can reach 90 million, but it can't surpass the Wii, the PS4 is just too big. Also, when Sony gives a cloud option or streaming PS3 games with PS4 (or, to make things less complicated, an emulator), it will end the sales of the PS3.

Not even the ps4 will.

No, but I never thought that. It won't have the legs of the PS1 and especially PS2 during the new generation. It's falling fast and won't sell more than a couple million this year, and half less next year. The market for 7th Gen is too saturated, and newer markets won't help much. It could probably take another 10 years for it to catch up.

What about the PS1 and PS2, do they still have a chance?

I was one of the ones who thought it would, but I also didn't believe that the price of the PS3 will still retail north of $200 for a standard, harddrive model. If the system followed a progressive PS2 pricing model, the possibility would still be on the table.
