The funny thing is it'll be in 5th or fourth at this rate.

Honestly, do JRPG makers even realize how hard it is to save the world? That shit is impossible!

the 4th fastest:

1-Wii
2-ps2
3-ps1

PS3 reached 25 Million in under 3 years. PS1 took just over 3 years.

Currently, the list goes:

  • Wii
  • PS2
  • PS3
  • PS1

Only cos it launched in Japan one year earlier than in the rest of the world.

Well, the bottonline, it's the 3rd fastest selling console...

Well, your really spinning the situation to help the PS3. You should always use aligned launches.

Wow the last place console this gen is still going to be one of the top selling ever. My prediction of the end of generation:

1. PS2 - 140-150 million
2. Wii - 100-110 million
3. PS - 102 million
4. PS3 - 80-90 million
5. 360 - 65-75 million
6. NES - 62 million
7. SNES - 49 million
etc.

what do yall think of that precition (obviously SNES, NES and PS1 are staying the same)

The wii will definitely beat the ps2......its the fastest selling home console EVER.

The PS3 has a slim...(dont say it!)...chance of beating out the 360 but even if it does it wont be a 15 million lead...at most it would be a 1-3 million lead.



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

It's about perspectives though. If you look at it from a different perspective, than what slimebeast is saying is correct. Otherwise, Carl is correct here.

I understand the different perpective, but using unaligned launches doesn't make sense. It's unfair to compare the launches of the 360, Wii, and PS3 unaligned because the PS3 launched late in Europe.

I didn't realise it was doing this well, now let's just hope the sales stay up, and Sony expand Naughty Dog to the point where they can make a game a year!

@Chairman Mao

The predictions look good in relationship with each other, but I would say higher across the board.

Perhaps. Just try to understand something though, I still say the PS3 can't catch the 360 by gen's end, but was trying to defend Carl's point. If that makes sense...

Of course, I'm not necessarily directing this at you, but you continuing where the discussion left off.

Nice. PS3 still has alot of life in it. The last few weeks show people want it at a certain price. It's just Sony should have started out with what they are doing with the slim, although it wasn't possible at the time.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Is this "3rd fastest selling console" thing actually true? Above NES, SNES, PS1, 360, etc? That doesn't seem right to me, but great if true.
