Forums - Sales - So next stop for Ps3 = Wii.Impossible?

It's possible depenging on FFXIII/GT5 boost for several weeks/months.
And in the long run again if Nintendo fails to deliver quality software again like they did in 2009.

Who cares the beauty of this generation is all consoles are fully supported by third party, which means competition, and better pricing and game selection. That is all I care about.



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

nice thread look at my sig for answers

would of like to see how the end of this year would of played out w/o the wii price cut

yes i think it can beat the wii weekly next year wii sales should slow down even more as userbase gets more saturated ps3s will pick with big sw releases coming out all next year i dont even know wat the wii has sw for next year

also think ps3 will make up serious ground in jp on the wii next year the gap between them will be less than 3mill and eventually the ps3 will take the lead in that region

i still don't understand why are people buying the wii... i bought the wii on its "high time" paying 299.99 for it, and i have never touched it again after 3 hours of super smash brothers brawl...

Wii's software line up is just awful... I guess for Wii, they sale more hardware than software?? Anyone have # for wii's software to console attachment rate? I'd suspect it to be like average no more than 2 game per console? :/

Lol, Wii launched at 249 bucks. :p

@ BHR-3, so you'd have liked to see how the end of this year would've played out without Wii's pricecut? Yeah sure, and I'd have liked to see it without the PS3 Slim/pricecut. XD

Doesn't that make your prediction completely skewed then? "lol, it's possible but I don't even know the Wii's lineup."

Next year the Wii has:

-SMG2
-Metroid: Other M
-Zelda (likely. If not then early 2011.)
-Dynamic Slash
-Epic Mickey
-Monster Hunter 3
-Red Steel 2

Then some smaller titles that won't make a big difference in the short run but it does encourage people to buy Wiis:

-No More Heroes 2
-Trauma Team
-Sky Crawlers
-The Grinder
-Tales of Graces
-Monado
-Shiren 3
-Fragile
-Arc Rise Fantasia
-Sin and Punishment 2
-Gladiator AD
-Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

It's impossible guys, get over it.

 

Also, for the whole "lol which library is better" argument:

Wii fans: Wii is better!

360 fans: 360 is better!

PS3 fans: PS3 is better! (this is basically what Carl, leo-j, psrock, and Simalcrum have been emulating the entire thread)

"Impossible". Just like it was impossible for PS3 to start outselling Wii in Japan after MH3, WSR, WF+, Pricecut etc...

Funny how that "Impossible" thing works...



                            

^PS3 outselling Wii after MH3, WSR, WF+, and price cut is one thing. Outselling it LTD in Japan is another. Like Soriku said: IMPOSSIBLE.



i kinda meant that "i dont even know" meaning that there not as earth shattering as the ps3 line up

none of those wii games will move HW much most of those games u listed are sequels people who wanted smg2 red steel2 zelda already bought a wii a long time ago cant say that about the ps3 games like gt5 ff13, gow3 twisted metal

my predictions are never completely skewed there most always on point

If the PS3 continues to keep up this momentum for another 2-3 years.. then maybe, just maybe.. it has a chance at catching up to the 360.. then the wii, probably behind by a few million units. This Gen is pretty much over..

1. WII
2. XBOX 360
3. PS3

ninty knows it, ms knows it and heck even sony knows it...



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

Explain to me how the PS3 is going to cover a 30 million+ lead when it hasn't even hit 30 million yet? If you didn't already realize, the Wii is beating the PS3 in both NA and EU (arguably the PS3's best region) by a lofty margin. In Japan, at the moment, it's only beating it by...~10k? That's not a whole lot. And it's not like the Wii'll always be lower than the PS3 in Japan anyway. The Wii still has a near 5 million lead over the PS3. Even if the PS3 still outsells the Wii in Japan by 10k (which is impossible as numbers will jump up and down in favor of each console) it would still take nearly 10 years to finally beat it. WW the Wii is still crushing the PS3 even with the PS3's biggest moves - the slim, and multiple new games.

There's no way it'll happen. Thinking otherwise is just pure fanboy drivel.

You should say if you are talking about LTD or not, after all... The OP is talking about weekly sales ¬_¬
