Forums - Gaming - End of the Year Market Share Predictions

It seems like the holiday season is just around the corner again and the big three are getting prepared.

Sony has the PSP GO,  The slim and a pricecut and ff13 in Japan and possibly GT5.

MS has a pricecut on the the elite and ODST around the corner as well

Wii has the New SMB as well

(This isnt a comprehensive list but I am sure there will be those who complain)

My question is, what do you see the percentage of the market shares looking like once the holiday season is over. Looking at last year which was great to MS due to high profile titles and a price cut, the 360 gained about 2 % if I remember correctly.

My guess is this time the percentages will be Wii 47.7% 360 27.9% PS3 24.2 %

I would like to see the PS3 do well but realistically, after last year I am not sure if percentages change that much.

Anyways, post what you think the shares will be after the holiday season and why. Please keep it civil

@ blacksaber,
youre right, I completely forgot about the dreamcast 2 announcement that will take place at the TGS

in an alternate universe where sega still makes consoles

We SEGA Fanboy's live in our own dimension where SEGA is the market leader and Sonic games only contain him, Tails, Knuckles, Eggman and mabye Amy for a comedy...
