Well, personally I believe that this will be the case.

Wii: 140-160M

Ps3: 45-55M

X360: 45-55M

So I have this gen at ~ 250M.

A good growth from ~ 190M last gen. (30%)

 

 

This is where I will plant my flag.

10 or 20M! This is my opinion, respect it please (and btw, 360 = 0 in japan and average in europe).

@ tremble... 360 35m-45m???

360 may only sell 10 more million?? yeah ok. Why do you people think that the 360 is just going to dry up and PS3 explode. It's delusional.

 

Good question.. and your answer was right, delusional fanboyism.  Fanboys keep chanting "10-year plan, 10-year plan, 10-year plan...." to make up for the fact that their consoles predicted destruction of the Wii and 360 didn't happen as planned.

300 million? Doubt it.

So when is the next gen console luanching? 2011, 2012... 2013 latest.

We are only just over a 1/4 of the way to 300m consoles sold. o we are going to see 220m sales of consoles in the next 4 years? No way.

Here is where last generation was at the end of 2002, with just 3 years to go till the Xbox 360 released.

ConsoleWeeklyTotal
1,459,331 (-) 39,401,621
390,626 (-) 6,408,925
288,216 (-) 6,490,007

In other words.... your problem is assuming that the consoles stop selling when the next gen starts..... The Wii at least will continue on just like the PS2 is now, So 250 million for this generation is very likely, and 300 million is not out of the question, though a tad higher than I would estimate.

 



It hasn't even reached one million in japan, and in europe, it's a tie even with one year and a half more on the market Oo.

Right, but I think Tremble is trying to say that the "Europe" numbers and "Other" numbers are not the same (Europe is only PART of the "others" numbers).. that much is true. But with that being the 360 really has started to erode the European monopoly of Europe.

Thank u, I didn't know that (sarcasm inside). As you can see, the 360 has a nice year's end in europe thanks to its price cut, but what will happen when sony will cut the price too?

Anyway, this is MY opinion.



Sarcasm at me? Why?
