Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Prediction #1 ~:~ Xbox 360 Will sell 100 Million units

@mrstickball

no no no

SONY instead of SELLING SCE Division (as rumors suggest)

WILL SELL IP's/game studios

GT IP alone will help PS division get back to profit,.

With the gorwth of the xbox 360 system I have seen I am confident it will sell 20 Million units this year.

in 2010 the Arcade will go down to $99 & the Core will be at $199....along with Halo 4 released.

After looking at the current SONY situation I think SONY will sell of powerful IP's such as gran Turismo

this game will go to xbox 360 & be multiplat BUT will be a huge traction in EU as it will be bundled with the Xbox Pro for £129.99 in 2010.

I see Xbox 360 Sales like this:

2009 -- 20 Million --- LTD Sales 47.4 Million

2010 -- 20 Million -- LTD Sales 77.4 Million

2011 -- 13 Million -- LTD Sales  90 Million

2012 -- 6 Million -- LTD Sales 96 Million

2013 -- 4 Million -- LTD sales 100 Million

JUMP IN NOW!

what do you guys think  I feel this is totally possible! It makes sense...360 momentum is unstoppable now!!!!

 

 

47 + 20 != 77



OMFG! I ADDED WRONG!

Yeah, by 10 million... so I guess you are predicting 90 million, then?



hmm, i am going to guess around 45-50 million for ps3, 55-65 million for x360. And if you add those both up, and you get the wii's numbers



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360...

I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

FYI, here's the Playstation 1 (using the hardware shipment chart)...Numbers are from April to March of the given years:

94/95 - 830,000 (0.83m LTD)
95/96 - 3,430,000 (4.26m LTD)
96/97 - 9,240,000 (13.50m LTD)
97/98 - 19,320,000 (32.82m LTD)
98/99 - 21,600,000 (54.42m LTD)
99/00 - 18,500,000 (72.92m LTD)
00/01 - 9,310,000 (82.23m LTD)
01/02 - 7,400,000 (89.63m LTD)
02/03 - 6,780,000 (96.41m LTD)

As you can see, the Playstation 1's best year wasn't it's '3rd year', but it's 4th full year, and 5th Christmas. So it's entirely feasible that, if a console catches on later in it's lifespan, that it can do well and have great legs.

I am NOT advocating the 360 will beat 100m LTD (I think that's a cruel joke) but that it can shake off what most assume will be a lower year, and only increase it's current LTD install base by 50% from it's current LTD number.


You're right.

But since I hate admitting that, let me defend myself just a bit.

The Playstation was released december 94 in japan, and september 95 in the rest of the world. That coupled with the april/march thingy really screws with my head. I was going to do a chart of my own, but VGChartz lacks data for the PlayStation, so I cannot do that.

It does appear to be that the Playstation peaked in it's third full year in Japan, from what I can tell from the data (5 million). That would mean that the real peak for it in the other terretories also came in it's third full year, but I cannot check on that, unfortunatly.

Still, you're right. I just hate admitting to it.

You're correct it wont do anywhere near what this guy is stating BUT I think you're also wron on doubling the 360 numbers as LTD just because the PS2 draws that comparison.

The PS2 reached its peak in 2002 .... its (3rd) year on the market, the 360 is entering its 5th (so to speak) and this year it has to be said its looking more likely the 360 will top this years sales over last years. ...

 

Ok, I know you weren't slamming the 360, but these kinds of things crack me up.  360 celebrated the end of its 3rd year on the market on November 21st, 2008.  We are now less than 2 months into the 4th year of its release.  The console is really NOT that old.  Its like calling Hayden Panettiere old because she's not 18 anymore ...

lol I know its not 5 years old what I meant was 2005/06/07/08/09

It wil be celebrating its 5th christmas this year if that means anything! Anyway you get the point I'm making? the 360 will peak 2 years later than the PS2.



 

No system can break 100 million without Japan.

No system can break 100 million without 50% marketshare.

No XBox can be supported for 9 years.
