I know this has been done before but I have a reason for this. The PS3 is close to coming out with a Slim/Price cut and Microsoft and Nintendo could possibly counter that with a price cut of there own and change everything around, not to mention the PS Wand and Natal could do good for sales aswell. So whats your LTD prediction for the big three consoles (PS3/X360/Wii or if you want PSP and DS) and then I might revive this thread around the end of the year to see if people agree with there prediction or not (If I'm allowed).

From now till the end of the year is going to get pretty ridiculous with the big three, anything could happen (sales).

My LTD prediction:

PS3: 70 million

X360: 64 million

Wii: 133.99 million (Edited: because of Rol and his Forum Ninja skills)

Edit: READ PLEASE

Alright I made this thread in August and I'm reviving it to see if people agree with there predictions, now that the year is over and all the mayhem is starting to die down, what does people think the LTD sales will be now?

Wii - 120 Million

PS3 - 60 Million

Xbox 360 -- 75 Million

PS3 - 50 million
Xbox 360 - 60 million
Wii - 130 million

Lifetime Shipments (HW):

DS Line (DS, Lite, i): 170m-200m

PS2: 147m

Wii: 120m-165m

PSP Line (PSP, PSP 2000, PSP 3000, PSP-Go): 80m-95m

X360: 45m-70m

PS3: 45m-70m

Lifetime Shipments (SW):

PS2 - 1.55b

Wii - 1.4b

DS Line - 1.15b

X360 - 750m

PS3 - 650m

PSP Line - 360m

HW Shipments to Retail Through June 2009 (SW):

PS2 ~ 139.30m (1.486b)

DS ~ 107.75m  (596m)

PSP ~ 53.00m (~215m)

Wii ~ 52.62m (384m)

X360 ~ 31.40m (~270m)

PS3 ~ 23.83m (~190m)

Variables Still Playing Out:

- When Nintendo cuts the Wii price for the first time.

- If Microsoft brands Natal as new system

- How much money Sony loses on PS3

- Whether Wii-HD is real or just Pachter speculation

- PSP Go success at $250

- Timing of DS 2/PSP 2 - both systems are semi-ancient tech now but perform quite well (especially DS).

- Introduction of "player's choice titles" for Wii/DS

- Digital Distribution

- Apple

This was my last set of life predictions... made back in February.

-------------------

I think at the moment I would change it to this:

Wii expected range goes down, PSP goes up..... I designed the minimum/maximum ranges to account for all possibilities, so they should always remain the same whatever happens, although PSP Go could be very close to pushing the max for PSP. (I didn't really expect something like that at all)

Im not sure...

Wii: 100M (I don't see them continuing to sell the Wii once an equally cheap to produce, high margin Wii 2 is out)

Xbox 360: 60M

PS3: 50M

Wii: 130m
360: 60m
PS3: 50m

Wii: 115M
PS3: 85M
360: 60M

Wii: 125M
PS3: 65M
360: 60M

Interesting.

I guess you are correct:
