Analysts: PlayStation 3 outsold Xbox 360 in March, other predictions |
Ó
Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter has issued a research note which made a couple of predictions regarding the video game industry in March. Noted in the list were some estimated sales of every console as well as sales figures showing that the video game retailers are making much more money than they did last year.
Pachter and the other analysts from Wedbush Morgan have estimated sales of US$ 705 million for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PlayStation Portable, and DS combined.
Their research also detailed how many units of each console (but not handhelds) were sold during the time frame:
- Wii: 700,000 units
- PlayStation 3: 365,000 units
- Xbox 360: 310,000 units
While it may seem that the growth of the video game industry has reached phenomenal levels, Wedbush Morgan is confident that the numbers will rise even higher in the next few months. Reflecting this assessment is the company's recommendations that investors start picking up Activision, Electronic Arts, Nintendo, THQ, and Ubisoft shares.

This guy is a douche! Why do you keep printing his "predictions"?
and he's pretty damn good at it. watch GT's the Bonus Round if you want to see him in action
that he is going to get butt rape by the end of 2008
55K between 360 and PS3. Looks like PS3 isn't closing the gap effectively enough, this is the only time of the year when PS3 has exclusives over the 360 (hardware stock and new game droughts). In April the numbers will be much closer, europe should respond to the 360's price cut coupled with GTA - this will make PS3 and 360's sales within 20k of each other. Europe is the 360's only problem. (disregarding Japan as Japs are neglecting the PS3 aswell, not so much but a lot compared to last gen).

He knows nothing. He said the ps3 would outsell the Wii in March 2008. Guess what? never happened. He even said the Wii was a fad lol. All he's doing is guess work and he isn't even good at that.
Too early, everything not started yet. (like MGS4 GTA4 and Gears 2 or any other big bang!)
Not just March, the PS3 has been outselling the 360 since January!
Plus, these idiot analysts told us that "lucky streak" wouldn't last past February.
They're all idiots!
