It's going to hit that by about march next year. What's your revised prediction?



This is very late but:
Ps4 110 million +
Xb1 40 million
Wii u isn’t worth mentioning
And bonus:
Switch 90 million (roughly Wii u + 3ds)

Wow. I don't remember this at all. I don't even like doing long term predictions. 

Anyway, I still stand by my PS4 numbers (tho it might end just above 120-130m). Dont know what made me think the XBO would sell so close to the X360, but in my defense the XBO did outsell the X360 for the first few years/months. Problem being it did by launch and holiday numbers only, every other time of the year it didn't do too well. Wii U seems fine.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Lol, ZhugEx, the great analyst estimated 89M PS4s lifetime sales.

[PS4] 90,000,000
[XB1] 40,000,000
[WIU] 16,000,000

Have to increase the PS4 to probs 120m or so, really surprised to see 2017 as the peak year.

XB1 at this point i don't even care anymore because first, MS doesn't even show official sales and, second, is a complete mess with generation with XB1X. But i think final numbers overall should be close to that, XB1X or not.

Also i think Switch should sell on par with PS4... so 120m or more.

I've revised my prediction in the following way:

PS4: too many
X1: too few
Wii U: lol

I think this is much more accurate than my previous one and I am confident this will stay true to the end.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

MY prediction is still on point!!! Some probably thought I was hating with that XB1 predictiion, I just saw the writing on the wall.

PS4 sales stand to likely be higher than that though, maybe it will end up at 120M-130M. Reason being that right now it stands to have sold around 110M by the time the PS5 releases sometime in 2020. Sony will probably still support the console for at least another 3-4 years after that so it could still sell like another 10M consoles during that period.



Seems like the PS4 over 100M, X1 under 50M and WiiU under 15M weren't so out of place.
