Forums - Sales Discussion - DFC Intelligence predicts PS3 to take 40-50% of current gen hardware sales

Legend11 on 30 October 2008

I'm a little surprised that their prediction is that high considering the PS2 got 67% during the peak of the PS2 era.  I also wonder how they came up with that number.  If we assume the Wii gets 50% that leaves the 360 with 10% or less this generation.

Yep that seems way to high. 30% would be the max for me.

Come now.  If the same prediction were made about Microsoft you would be first in with the headkicking.

That shouldn't come as a surprise though. With the amount of sales data this generation already has, it's pretty obvious that DFC Intelligence is way off with their prediction.

maybe they should take that word out of their name

@starcraft

you don't understand

ofcourseI disagree with them.....thats why I just said "right nalayst bashing begins in"

If i was getting "defensive" I would've added PS3 bashing in there too

I would say

Wii = 55%
PS3 = 25%
Xbox 360 = 20%
