Ps3 is doing well as of late.Hopefully the drop off won't be too bad.



360 is slowly gaining sales in Japan.....If Japan was as big as America, 360 would be selling like 50-100k a week in Japan.



PREDICTIONS:
(Predicted on 5/31/11) END of 2011 Sales - Xbox 360 = 62M;  PS3 = 59M;  Wii = 97M

Wow... What's with these numbers? Or did PSP just had a bump?

^^
Yes, quite curious, maybe PSP Japan releases in February reached a sort of critical mass, making the console itself look more appealing?

^^I think there was a new colored PSP released



its a deep red deep blue, very nice. :)



Worldwide looks typical, but something is definitely happening in Japan. And many times Japanese trends will circulate to America and sometimes vice versa (given about 15 yrs). Nintendo better do something about that.




Yeah well if Japan was as big as the UK PS3 would be selling 360k based on your 10x estimate



Predictions

GT5 will sell 3.2million + first week on ps3 (made 06 March 2010)

FFXIII Versus will have higher Metacritic scores than FFXIII after the first month.... Bet going on with perpride - loser changes sig for a month

KH3 will be PS3 EXCLUSIVE - willing to bet removal from vgchartz for a month
