The only thing I can think of that's up Sony's sleeves are watches, 'cause they're just wanting the next few years go by fast for PS4.

 

Oh boy.  They are out today!

where do people get these charts from?ive searched in google for this but i didnt get it!

 

 

heh, my Google search "chart profits losses games sony nintendo microsoft" turned up the VGChartz thread on the first page of Google results, when I restricted results to within the past year on Advanced Search.  Good ol' VGChartz.

That was good work by a poster in the other thread to run the numbers through inflation adjustment, too.

So you expect Sony to sell 50M consoles in a year? That's how much they need to sell to beat Nintendo.


In all honesty... Nintendo has all the aces up it's sleeves. They can drop the price a lot more then Sony can, but they don't even need to :) They never had a single price cut. They're releasing wii sports resort with WM+. Wel all know this will be a system seller and sell a lot of games... Nintendo can do all sorts of things to sell more consoles like different colors, releasing games like zelda,etc...

We also have a nice addition of new smilies, including my favorite!

Not my place to say, sorry.

New smilies are cool though...

Geez!  A Toshiba finance guy with a Toshiba insider thread.  In case you didn't remember, Toshiba wasn't a member of the BDA.  You guys don't care for the truth at all, do you?

Im actually a Sony insider...

Prove it.  I already provided a direct link to the Blu-ray.com site recognizing him as an insider.  And, there was a link to where other industry insiders recognized him as such.  Of course, the xbox fanboys can't handle that.  Their cognitive dissonance prevents them from doing so.
