Inspired by markers thread "The PS3 will NOT fall under 200k WW the rest of this generation", I decide to have one prediction myself that only time will tell.

The PS3 will fall under 100k WW before the end of this generation.

Japan -    Will fall under 13k a week

America - Will fall under 40k a week

Others -   Will fall under 47k a week

***By end of this generation I mean once a next Gen console (Wii 2, PS4, XBox720; any one of them) is out on store shelves in any region.***

Please post what you vote for or your expectation!

Have fun!



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.

Not this year, they have Arc, great games and can cut the price another time...it depends what you mean by "end of the generation", because if MS and Nintendo launch their consoles before Sony probably PS3 will fall below 100k before the PS4 launches...



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Too easy.

Summer 2011, the weeks before its next price cut.

it happened a few times last year, in 2008 it got to around 112k and sales were high in Q2 and Q3, usually the weak quarters. It won't happen this year probably but in 2011 it could easily, it will almost certainly happen in 2012 but we don't know yet if a next gen system will come out before then. Summer 2011 seems like the likely target.

That would be a bad week for every console



Carl on 30 January 2010

It will fall below that when the next cut is close.
