Forums - Sony - Will Sony Finish Ahead this week?

I doubt it. Still too pricey.

Possibly passing the 360, but coming close to the Wii? Not a chance in my opinion.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

Considering this past week they barely reached 1/3 of Wii's weekly sales, I doubt it.



Best they can hope for is 3rd.

Sony released 2 of their most anticipated exclusives this past week. Killzone 2 and Yakuza 3 (in Japan) this past week. I was wondering if they are trying for domination this week or if it was just a coincidence? Do you guys think that Sony will actually pull ahead of everyone this week or finish a little short?

My personal view? PS3 will go above the 360 this week and it will end up relatively close between the Wii and the PS3.

 

PS3 sells so well it outsells itself

 

Anyway, 360 has SO4 in Japan (and H2O (if you get this joke, I hate you :P) and Halo Wars in Others.

 

Wii will sell well as always.

 

PS3 will probably be approximately equal to 360 imo



This could be a good week for the ps3. I think big sales in japan and Europe will give it the edge WW.

Actually, it was bad reading on my behalf. I read it as

"My personal view? PS3 will go above the 360 this week and it will end up relatively close - between the Wii and the PS3."



I dunno maybe.

Eh, it'll be close I think.

I think the interesting sales point will be whether it can outsell what it sold this time last year (195,867). I think it can do it, but we'll see.



it will be really close with 360 WW but probably won't be within 100K from Wii



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
