Actually, it can't be just the Wii increasing. Something has happened to Ps3. Look: http://vgchartz.com/hwcomps.php?cons1=Wii&reg1=Total+Other&cons2=PS3&reg2=Total+Other&cons3=X360&reg3=Total+Other&start=39453&end=39670

You do know this thread is about long term sales, right?

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

I don't think anyone actually believed the PS3 would take over the Wii. But you are right, PS3 sales are down (due to shortages) and Wii sales are going up and up.

Well to me the PS3 has been pretty steady, and much of the decline is due to the fact that the summer is here, so sales are of course lower. The other disadvantage is that the Xbox has had a pretty big price cut (pro is 2/3 price of 40GB) so that will obviously take away from sales. I think there wont be a problem if Sony do a minor price cut after the 80GB is introduced

And it gets worse.

I don't know about the general trend but between E3 where the new 80Gb SKU was officially announced and the 29.8 when it will be available customers had the choice between waiting a month for a PS3 with 80Gb HD and a DualShock controller or buying a 40Gb PS3 with a SIXAXIS now.

The Wii is doing incredibly well in Europe but the PS3 will do much better next month than now.
