Forums - Sales - Game Industry expects PS3 to be the most succesful console in 2010

Looks like the same people voted for the Wii and Nintendo

Iphone, huh? Yeah, might be a problem since half the developers in the world that make shitty phone games are now bankrupt because the market wasn't as vast as they imagined.

Did they define "successful"? If they mean gain in market share then I can see PS3 being the most successful for sure. If they mean console sales for the year then no Wii will still be the most successful.

Define the parameters then we can have a meaningful discussion.

They probably defined the parameters to whatever would make the Wii come last.

You don't know what they consider "success"

It could be:

Profit

Revenue

Game SW Revenue

Game SW Profit

Platform Size by Revenue/Units

Platform Size for third parties

Business Model

Game Quality

 

That said, if you weighted everything equally I think you'd have to go with something other than PS3.



People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.

When there are more laws, there are more criminals.

If the Wii suffers another 30% collapse this year, then the PS3 will easily beat it saleswise.



Currently playing on PS3: God of War III

Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII

Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger

Even if the Wii dropped 30% i still doubt the PS3 would beat it.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!
