One more thing 1 Million for Ps3 on FF13 launch week is GLARINGLY possible

PS3 is above its 2008 numbers by OVER 110K

This gap will only INCREASE as we get into december


No its not. I highly doubt that is possible. If I didn't already have a bet with slimebeast I'd put money where my mouth is;)

It is possible.

WOW!!  Even with your price cuts, CODMW2 and Uncharted 2 the Wii still outsold the HD twins...  I dont know how Nintendo dose it...  WOW!!!

 

 

LOL try it again:

 

WII 559k

PS3+Xbox360 621k

 

Difference is 62K in favor for the HD Consoles. After this Christmas Wii probably be way down in the percentage.

Yep, the big differenc is Wii/DS sales >  Everything else combined by 125k. Again with no big MW2 or Uncharteds.  WOW!!!!!!

 

 

You didnt said WII/DS outsold HD TWins you said WII outsold it.  The had much much better times. Its still down YOY like the DS and its BAD for the WII if it gets outsold through the HD Consoles. If you wow at this even if its bad performance for the WII compared to the past. And if you wow every time Wii and DS outsold the HD Twins you can WOW all the time.

 

 

If I say WOW then to comment an achievment which is rare. For the WII this week is disappointing. Ofcourse it has great sales but still down compared to last year. And Wii to not outsell the HD Consoles is disappointing to. Not for me but a lot of people said WII 50% for sure. ANd this is looking very unlikely.

 

Fact is that Wii is the weakest leader of all times. It didnt even manage to unite 50% of the market and if the Xbox360 will be strong this Christmas the Wii could loose 1-2% marketshare over the Holidays. If you are honest the Wii is not in such a good position. Marketleader have usually more lot more then 50%. PS2 = 73% PS1 = 71% SNES= 61% NES= 82% Wii=48.6% and falling. I cant see big reasons to celebrate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

LOL and both Microsoft and Sony wouldnt love to have the Wii's profits in their coffers. If anything this SD box is laughing at the HD twins. It comes to something when sales of a SD console are being compared to 2 HD consoles produced by MUCH larger companies. Just LOL

why are non gamers even here????

That is a bold statement from someone with 17 posts to his credit. You should get banned or at least warned for this. It´s flaming.

Sure,  I'll rephrase this. Anything is possible. But it's highly unlikely, improbable.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

I just ignored this person, he was trying to start something a few posts back about Wii fanboys or something. This is the sort of posts this site doesn't need.

For the big week last year the 360 sold 870k. PS3 is currently tracking above the 360 AND has the FF13 bundle in Japan.

I would say it's a 50/50 chance.

Arius Dion @

I guess you´re right. It´s probably best to ignore statements like that. I guess it hurts my inner feelings though. I´m a Nintendofanboy who has been playing games for more than 20 years. Which is probably more than the age of the person who wrote this about non gamers in the first place =)



@samus aran

Be a Nintendo 'fan' instead of 'fanboy' haha...being a fanboy has more potential to cloud your judgement (not saying it´s your case btw).

LoL, I hear you, this gens a little topsy turvy with all these new phrases and taglines I don't even know what a "non-gamer means" I still have no concrete definition of what a casual game is and I'm certainly lost when it comes to defining "hardcore gamers." But by all means bring attention to the proper people when people post junk like that because some people only learn after being punished. I guess there's an allure to living dangerously;)

@Carl: I think it's far less likely the % is 50/50. But we'll see. We don't have to wait long now though do we?;)

yo but seriously.... do you guys really, really, remember all the, omg slim won't do anything for ps3's, the increase will die after a week, this is just temporary, 360 will be back on top before the years end.................. i wonder what those people are hiding behind. The ps3 will outsell the 360 for the rest of this gen, the only feasible increase the 360 might see is with natal, they have no console pushing software and will get no console pushing software.

And unlike all the people who have a 360 and are buying a ps3, the amount of people buying a 360 who own a ps3 is small..... i don't plan on getting a 360, don't need 1, But all my 360 friends are getting ps3's. and to think Sony has yet to release it's heavy hitters.

the only question now is how long will it take for ps3 to overtake the 360.



but i seriously wish Sony would go unprofessional for like 5 minutes and bash the hell out of everyone who said they were doomed over the years.... like for 5 minutes of E3, go on stage and read some of the ps3 is doomed articles wrote in like 06, 07, and then show what they are doing now, and just laugh. Kevin Butler would own at that.



Well i actually have PS3 at just under 1 Million for that week in the prediction thread.

Will be fun finding out.
