PS3 will beat X360 but only coz of Japan

I predict that Japan will be the saviour of the PS3 with the Xbox 360 selling a paltry 250k units in 14months- its the best chance for the PS3 to gain a huge lead on the X360.

the X360 will beat the PS3 in NA but the fight will be closer in Europe (Europeans are big Playstation fans)

Japan didn't save Gamecube last gen from coming in last place.shsonline

Problem is, there not even big in Japn, Wii is.fixer293

Who's in the lead in Japan?......Wii

Japan will make the PS3's thumping look a bit more respectable, but the x360 will lead in both USA/NA and Europe.

The PS3 will be lucky to sell 60million units this gen.

Remember, PS2 sales never took off until it hit the $200 price point. The PS3 may be lucky to hit $200 in mid-2009.

look at january numbers... the PS3 didnt even do much better than the 360, if it keeps this pace japan is definitely not enough to boost its overall sales over the 360audioaxes

for the billionth time... ms does not NEED mass japanese consumer support to remain the #1 worldwide leader...

for the love of gawd... STOP believing every thing japanese gaming execs tell you....

No, the Wii is bigger, but it isn't in the 360/PS3 market. Honestly.

As a lemming, why are you even mentioning the Wii anyways?

What seems apparent now, isn't going to be the case in the following years. Just watch.

Nintendo realizes this, and don't consider themselves competition, they are "New Gen", and Nintendo is right.

Right now, it may look grim for the 360/PS3 market, but that will change in time.

Well, I guess that's up to Nintendo's support. If they can keep the customers loyal, great..but looking at their division for N64 and GC, it tells me there are going to be droughts.

Then, if you look at the Wii's upcoming lineup, you can see the droughts already coming.

Heck, the biggest games for me are the Big 3, Mario Galaxy, Metriod, and SSBB...whenever those hit. Sure, they are porting Paper Mario over, etc...but they need to get A LOT more 3rd party support to keep people from looking over the fence at those Cheaper PS3's/360's when they are more affordable.
