do you even know, how math works?

xbox is at 12m units already
wii u is at 9m units

even if they don't sell any more consoles in the next 10 year, the ps4 need to sell 210 million units, to achive 90% marketshare

80% or more marketshare is not possible
only if sony pay a 100 bucks to buy an ps4

i never said PS4 will be 90%,jst put the optio in there

i never said PS4 will be 90%,jst put the option in there

Not sure why people think this gen will be as long as last one, when Sony/MS have said that it won't be.

and u believe them...................hehe

PS5 will come 2020 at the earliest

XBOX NEXT might come early as MICROSOFT wud want a headstart to beat SONY

That being for obvious reasons of them having sold consoles for profit from beginning,and both architectures barely being differentiated from PC x86 architecture = less power/optimization potential.
(e.g. in contrast to PS3 whose potential really was impressive when released)

them being profitable from beggining has nothing to do with generation lenght

and also PS2 wasn't powrful and still lasted 6 years so PS4 will atleast last 7-8years

"even 90% might be possible if SONY break the bank and go nuts on Microsoft like Microsoft spent last generation."

yes but that clearly show that i was exaggerating and the terms are mentioned there as it was in context

 

if SONY started spending like MICROSOFT aka $1billion yearly marketing and HALO $200-300m marketing spending on FF15,UNCHARTED,FF7,GTA,RED DEAD,GRAN TURIMSO,MGS5,HORIZON,DRAGON QUEST,MONSTER HUNTER,CALL OF DUTY,BATTLEFIELD,NEED FOR SPEED,GOD OF WAR,LAST OF US,CRASH BANDICOOT,DESTINY,GTA full exclusivity,CALL OF DUTY full exclusivity and outright PS4 TV Cable replacing NETWORK and CABLE industry and many mnay more games and suprises and MEGATONs and GIGATONs and $199 PS4 and $99 PS4 then SONY can easily make 200million in console sales

200 million unit sales still won't give them 90% market share.

well it is just the start actually,with all that it will likely end with 250-300million console and with all that most likely microsoft will sell XBOX brand and SONY could entirely buyout NINTENDO so it will be made pretty damn easy

I can't see that happening but Math has betrayed me ever since 10th grade so I don't know.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Bruh.

 

No.

In fact, I think you should re-read some of your posts, because you are really desperately reaching for something here. Talking about Sony having GTA6 timed exclusivity in 2 of your comments even though that is not going to happen yet you're acting like it is confirmed.  It won't happen.

All of your comments are just "IF SONY DOES THIS AND THIS AND THIS AND, etc". 

I could say the same thing about Nintendo or Microsoft if I wanted to. 


The PS4 isn't even going to sell as well as the PS2. I have my doubts it will even reach 100M since it was already trailing behind the Wii in sales, and the WIi ended at 100M.

60 is very possible 70 is best case scenario for PS4.



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

Quick questions When will WiiU no longer receive market share for this generation? Or will it keep it's market share even after support for it has ended and the NX is released? When the Wii U was released was it added to the market with ps3 and 360? Or did it have 100% of it's own market since it did not belong to that generation? Since Wii U didn't replace the wii should the NX be allowed to to replace the wii u? Since after all it will be alone in it's own generation until MS and Sony release a new console.

If Wii U's market share is revoked because they are no longer supporting it and replacing it with the NX then Sony will for a brief period at least have 70% market share. If Wii U is allowed to keep it's market share and NX is given it's own market since it is a new generation past ps4 and Xb1 then Sony will have to sell a lot more consoles. Is it possible? Yes. Is it likely? No. MS is putting up a good fight. Then again people argued for days that Ps4 could never hold 50% market share and now we are here. So I'm not going to be sure either way.
