Forums - Sony - Playstation 3 To Reach 20 Million Sold by Jan 1st, 2009?

I think it will pass 21.5 million



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

20 milion this year is a conservative bet. 23 million isn't out of reach either.

Ummm, at the very least, it will get close. 18 million maybe. It could break 20million but not Guaranteed. The range I'd give is 18-21 million by January 1st 2009.

If MGS4 bundle continues throughout Christmas then it will go even higher.

I doubt it. They are clearing the 40GB stock now, and the MGS4 bundle will likely disappear before it. It's already hard to find. The $399 80GB releases in September, remember?

PS3 will have sold over 20m copies by 01/01/2009 and will continue to sell well in 2009.

 

i predict 40 million end of 2009

Can I have some of whatever you are smoking?



20 million seems likely at this point... it wouldn't even be that much of an increase over last year (8 million last year I believe, adding to the 2mil in 2006)

PS3 was at some 9M at the beginning of this year... I predicted 13M worldwide earlier this year... That makes some 22M total. Not bad I guess; it's definitely reachable. I really don't have time to make calculations now but 22M sounds pretty good to me so I might actually stick to it.

EDIT: Oops, my prediction was actually 14.2M, not some 13M. Anyway, it's not that much more. According to that, PS3 would be at some 23M-23.5M. Still not impossible, but ever harder than 22M. However, since it's possible I guess I might stick to my numbers and hope my predictions turn out to be correct.



if it desnt reach it,it will be very close to it

Ah, PS3 was just under 9mil at the end of the year.... I thought it was 10mil (that's what I based my above post on)

So it did 1.2 mil in 2006 --- 7.7mil in 2007, and to reach 20 mil LTD would need 11.1 million this year, which tbh is not even a stretch, it should do it nicely.



22 million easy, it will pass or about match the 360.
