1. You're right; I should say YTD, which is consistent with the "post holiday" moniker. I'll fix it.
2. You do 'em for attention too, huh?

I like how the PS3 stays between the lines of the Wii and 360. No lines ever cross.
Well this chart is pretty telling. The Wii has no games so it's sales continue downwards, but the PS3 and 360 have stuff like Blue Dragon and Gundam providing nice sales spikes. As the Wii continues to have no games in the future, it's graph line will continue to fall. As for the PS3, each time another good game is released we can expect another Gundam style sales spike. So basically, the Wii is only selling because it deosn't cost that much, and people must've been buying it for the backwards compatibility

Fortunately, we can just adopt a 'time will tell' attitude on this. Obviously we are both speculating, and you're arguing from the point that DMC3 sold very well, and you're right about that. I'm arguing from the point that traditionally nice-selling series are not pushing sales the way they ought to. I think we will see a one-week bump the week DMC4 comes out, and obviously that's a 'help' to the PS3, but it's no saviour, nor even anything close to it.
So we shall see. I think we both have a good case for our arguments.

I wonder if it will help the 360? Regardless, it's almost a foregone conclusion to which version will sell more WW.

sorry, you guys were asking to make the thread longer, I don't think I'm up to it though... It's sad Tabris was posting in the thread just above this one, yet he stays away from here. Media Create sales threads will never be the same
It's almost a shame, I'm a Nintendo fan, but I was really hoping for a close race this gen. It's fun scouring the news everyday to try and figure out what releases will push which console that extra inch it needs. At least outside of Japan there are still some interesting battles being fought, but we rarely get the numbers

Dude, Marvel gets death threats when they threaten to cancel Spider-Girl. That doesn't tell us how big the fanbase is, only how dangerously nutty they are.
MGS is a decent sized hit in Japan, nowhere near FF/DQ, sort of in the 1 million range. Like Anihawk said, about Final Fantasy III DS size.

There is competition. Sony is still able to turn the corner at any time and trump the competition. That reality alone is keeping everyone on their toes.
360 will grab more marketshare than Xbox did and maybe even beat out the Gamecube. I'm just wondering about Wii's legs. As HDTV and Blu Ray catch on and PS3 prices come down sales will continue to climb, I mean it's future proof. :lol
Not to say that the Wii won't continue to sell well cause it has that universal appeal, but Nintendo still has the second and third string devs froms 3rd parties. If that doesn't start changing I don't see how Nintendo can support a console on their titles alone.

Did you miss PantherLotus' analysis where he stated clearly that the 360 would be lucky to break a million?

Third parties are already releasing new IPs on the wii, not second and third string devs. And it's only the beginning. Wii is future proof because it SELLLS.

Heh.
Third party stuff is still very important, but I won't be surprised if Nintendo is capable of winning on the strength of their first party titles alone. Besides, it's a moot point to argue anyway because the majority of third party support ALWAYS goes to the console with the most momentum. Nintendo's first party stuff have demonstrated that they are more than capable to carry their consoles to that critical benchmark.
The fact that Animal Crossing, Brain Training and Nintendogs gave them the DS win and Wii Sports starting and cementing the Wii's lead(with no signs of stopping anytime soon) should tell you the strength of Nintendo's properties.
Pureauthor said:
I saw his "analysis" and I just don't agree, I think the 360 will get well over a million on holiday and game release hardware bumps. Granted I don't have any kind of analysis but I do know Lost Odyssee should move some hardware, even if it is poopy. Could something like Mass Effect or Too Human catch on? Maybe not, but more Japanese support is there with stuff like Ace Combat, DMC4, and who knows what else as the playing field starts to level. I would think that makes the 360 slightly more attractive to the Japanese consumer.
Looking at the numbers again though I thought GC only sold just shy of 2 million but I realize it's at 4 million in Japan. No way 360 could ever hit 4 million, I was thinking it might get like 1.8 million so it's still doom and gloom in Japan.

Yeah I know the usual suspects, it's a Nintendo platform afterall, so was the Cube. There just isn't much that interesting on the 3rd party front. It's gonna take more than Dewey's Adventure. I think the Wii has a good shot of being the number one platform in Japan but it's gonna take 3rd parties taking interest, and taking interest at the core gamer on the Wii. It's early in the gen but when games take 2 to 3 years to make you have to wonder if Nintendo can really keep the momentum going to attract enough support to keep it going. This isn't handhelds, Nintendo has strong viable competition.
