Xbox 360 Wins Through 2009?

simoniker writes "As part of a recent MI6 Conference presentation, IDG's Jason Anderson made predictions on the North American installed base of the next-gen consoles through 2008. He predicts that the Xbox 360 will continue to hold a lead into 2009, with the PS3 just behind and the Wii trailing significantly. In particular: 'In 2008, Anderson suggests 15.5 million units in homes for the Xbox 360, 13.5 million for PS3, and 6.8 million for Wii.' Is the Wii really going to trail by so much, or do the analysts not 'get it'?"

Based on his numbers, this makes perfect sense. After all:

360 sales in the month of May * 3 = uh, a lot
PS3 sales in the month of May * 3 = 0
Wii sales in the month of May * 3 = 0

Dang - the 360 will totally rule the next gen market! I can be an analyst too!

Remember, kids, you can't spell analyst without anal.
