I still do. Wii sales will only slow down from here, and PS3 sales will only get better. Once the PS3 drops to $300 and by then more great games are out, it will sell amazingly like 250k per week or more.

There is no price drop in sight for the wii, and if there is it'll be less significant.

oh i forgot to mention one thing, wii has no more good games coming except mario/zelda sequels.

eeek....another one of these topics...nintendo will "win" but none of the consoles will be made irrelevant and suffer a dreamcast demise...everyone will make money haha

Well, assuming Sony really stick to their 10-year plan for the PS3, then yes it's possible. Most likely Nintendo and MS will have their next-gen consoles out within the next 4-5 years. So by virtue of longevity the PS3 could potentially reach #1 in sales for this gen by year 8 or 9 because the Wii and 360 would already have stopped production by then.

Really? Like the new Mario and Zelda that no-one outside of Nintendo has heard of yet except you? The Wii has some very interesting stuff coming in the next bit like MadWorld, The Conduit, and some (potentially) great stuff for the casuals.

As your previous post asserts there is not way the Wii won't slow down while the PS3 will inevitably grow. Where did you come up with that peice of intuition? I think the PS3 is gaining certainly #2 is gonna be tight, but this is not 2006 the Wii is not a fad any more than the DS is and you know it, which makes your posts even more intellectually bankrupt.

If you want to troll try and be a little more educated about the topic next time.

These 2006 arguments have to die already. When will people accept the fact that pricing isn't what's driving the Wii's sales. If prices were the chief concern, the Wii's sales would have already slowed and 360 would begun to out pace it. The only thing a $300 PS3 would effect is Microsoft's 360 pricing. I am trying to see the logic behind this thinking. I can't find any. The PS3 getting down the launch price of the PS1 and PS2 is going to cause a sales to boom? Highly unlikely.

The PS3 reaching $300 price point would most likely cause the following to happen. It would swing the world wide HD console sales race back to the PS3's favor. MS would probably respond with some sort of bundle, saving their next price cut for the the Valhalla chipset. Some time in the 4th Quarter MS will institute a price drop, most likely $179/249/329, and a possible hard drive size upgrade for the Elite. The sales will sing back in Microsofts favor. Throughout this time period, the Wii will continue to outsell both HD consoles and Nintendo will probably bump the Wii's production form 2.4 million a month to 3 million a month.

Sony will probably respond to the MS prcecut in the first quarter of 2010 with $199/299 pricing level for the 80/160GB units. The sales trends will favor Sony yet again. MS will probably have yet another bundle following by a Fall 2010 price cut of $129/$179/$249. The murmurs of the X-box 720 will start to grow and the system will probably launch in the 4th Quarter of 2011. The Wii will almost certainly have had some sort of price but at this point $149 maybe?

     It does seem like they could be right. Even though the Wii has a horrible game library and no real justification for selling as well as it does, and even though it is totally outdated technologically, the general public thinks that as far as gaming goes that Nintendo products are golden eggs that have been **** out of the *** of God, so the Wii will continue to sell well for as long as people are ignorant.

      Of course now I will have followers of the Nintendo religion (as they are usually the types of Nintendo fans that one encounters on message boards -- and they aren't ignorant just fanatical) come on and reply to my comments with, "Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Music, and Link's Crossbow Training are the four greatest games ever made.  It doesn't matter what review score gaming journalists have almost universally decided that they deserve all that matters was that they were made by Nintendo."

FAIL!!

Sure I believe that 'someone' thinks that the PS3 will emerge victorious! Sure, why not!!
