In terms of new units sold, worldwide, what will be the score between Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo after the dust settles on Christmas 2008?
My prediction:
Sony - 59%
Microsoft - 29%
Nintendo - 12%
Closest prediction gets permenant bragging rights.
My reasoning:
It looks like the PS3 is going to outperform the XBOX this time around - the big question is whether or not the market cares more about the additional performance, and the ability of developers to truly support it, more than a unified online experience offered by XBOX Live.
As always, the market will follow the content, not the hardware specs - and XBOX Live is a big part of that content.
My bet is that Sony will lose market share to Microsoft on the XBOX 360, but still come out as the top seller, and Nintendo will remain about the same.
