I would say 360. now its on 43, by the end of the year will have, i think, battlefiild, lego star wars II, soul calibur iv and, for the games than will be relase before 09 i think, banjo, cod 5, fable 2, fallout 3, gears 2, gh 4, left 4 dead, prince of persia, farcry 2, fifa 09 and pro evolution.

So, i dont know abouth other consoles, but, the 360 will have by the end of the year betwen 55 and 60 millionsellers



End of 2011 (made 02/01/11) 
Wii: 99.453 m
Xbox 360: 67.837 m 
Ps 3: 60.726 m

This. Typically #1 sells more games and gets the better games.

The 360 will do well though.

Honestly guys, the ps3 is probably going to beat out the 360 in Software sales in 2009 easily because the install base will easily surpass the 360s hardware sales by middle of 2009. I still think the Wii unfortunately will win the software sales because any game with the name Mario in it will automatically sell at least 1 million copies.

Wii is first
Ps3 is a close second
360 is left in the dust

 

Man, you must live a sad little life for you to be that delusional.

360 had 41 million sellers in 31 months.
Wii had 25 million sellers in 19 months.

Overall 360 has had 1.3225806451612903225806451612903 million sellers per month.

Overall Wii has had 1.3157894736842105263157894736842 million sellers per month.

This gives the 360 a microscopic lead.

However, this is because the 360 had a larger userbase for 21 of its months and a smaller userbase for the last 10 months.

The fact that they are both churning out the same number of million sellers per month on average at this point means 360's only advantage was its head start. The Wii is gobbling up software market share faster than all hell, and it will have way more million sellers by the end of this generation. It'll be like the DS or PS2.

 Quoting this because I like the approach. Currently the 360 and Wii have both fallen in terms of how many million sellers they have per month, but that is because we are coming out of the summer months and dry season. Currently the numbers are 1.265 million sellers per month for the 360 (43/34), and 1.273 million sellers per month for the Wii (28/22). The PS3 currently has 0.727 million sellers per month (16/22), but it also suffers from a late European launch and a really rough first year. It will be interesting to revisit these numbers after the holidays.

ps3 because it will last longer than the other 2.

 

 The PS3 may last longer than the other 2, but the money that it rakes in makes will drop and then steady itself as a lower rate, as opposed to the PS4 which will take over. Nintendo and MS will end the gen at a healthy time and allow their new systems to gather all they can.

I think 360 will beat Wii. Even though Wii will have a huge user base many casual gamers don't buy that many games and don't buy games every month. 360 seems like it would sell more software. When the Ps3 catchs up to it then the multiplat games will be close and rest will rely on exclusives, which I think Ps3 wins in exclusive million sellers. The exclusives lately for Xbox haven't been selling that well imo compared to what future Ps3 exclusives will sell. I don't see Too Human or IU to sell a million. Games like LBP, SOCOM, Resistance 2, God of War 3, FFV13 and more will help Ps3 catch up but never get to second place I think. At the end it will be 360>Wii>Ps3
