One Wii game can beat all those third party or Sony made PS3 games combined

Sorry Wii has the stronger lineup, Heck Mario crushed the PS3 on its own this year, and it was out only one month in Japan

Thanks for clarifying. Although I can see some of the games listed not making it out in 2010, now I understand what you mean by better year in terms of software.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

uhm 1.9 million and 1.7 million are really close, not 2:1



Avinash_Tyagi on 06 January 2010

If PS3's biggest seller is GT5, its not going to sell more than the Wii in 2010, heck NSMB Wii may sell around that much in 2010 in japan

You are underestimating the power of Gran Turismo 5, like some people did with NSMB.

Also, you should better list new Wii games, that will pass atleast 200k in Japan during 2010.

Are you actually trying to compare GT5 to NSMB Wii?  lol

 

These games are on two totally different planes, NSMB is on a far higher plane than GT5, lol

Also if you want to know games that will pass 200K in japan

NSMB Wii, Wii fit plus, Wii sports resort, Wii relax, just to name a few, and Wii relax will probably outsell GT5 and most of the rest of PS3's lineup on its own, see this is why PS3 won't outsell Wii, Wii has titles that will keep selling well into the next year from this year, and will also have new titles like Wii relax, that will crush anything that the PS3 has.
