PS3 Predicted to Lead Market Through 2011

eldavojohn writes "The Yankee Group (a Boston Technology firm) recently announced that it predicts Sony's PS3 to lead the market with a 44% share through 2011. Most interesting is their prediction that the Wii will maintain only 16% of the market share. From the article: 'The analyst group believes Sony will lead in next-gen market share by 44% in 2011, with Xbox 360 taking a close 40% share, followed by Wii with a wee little bitty 16% share.'"

I hereby predict that the Xbox 360 will have 100% market share of the "Next-Gen" market through September.

Microsoft, can I have my check now?

It's a survey by the Yankee group, so it must be Microsoft.

Wait a minute... wasn't the PS3 from Microsoft's compeditor?

Game over

[whoop]

Well, it's been a fun ride Nintendo and Microsoft. They will be missed. PS3 is the bomb, it's now official. In order to stay cool, I will have to get the PS3 for all the neighborhood 8 year olds to ogle me.

Pfft. Try explaining to their parents that you want to show them your Wii.

The Yankee group confirms...

Nintendo is dying.

Now hear this!

I, along with my respected technology firm of Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe, and Dionne Warwick's psychic friends, combined with enough Magic Eight Balls to count up to 480, do hereby predict that the Virtual Boy will make a major comeback and obtain 67% of the market. Following by a close second with 54% will be a Tiger Handheld LCD version of The Lion King, with the remaining 32% playing with some sticks and gravel they found on the ground.

Please send the usual large bags of moneys for my business-analyisisting fees to my Summerhouse in the Hamptons, will you? thx.

What did you Expect?

[Shadow Wrought]

They're Yankees in Boston: of course they're confused.

Are we too sure?

[Mykid8yours]

That is if PS3 does ever make it out by 2011.

So who paid for the survey?

There's nothing wrong with the survey, they just didn't advertise the fine print of it. You see, the PS3 isn't going to lead the console market. It's going to lead the console market in Gimmicks and Giant Crabs that actually existed in Ancient Japan!

Now tell me, can you get THAT on your 360? I didn't think so.

Really, Its true!

[Mysteerie]

PS3 will lead the market and the Phantom will be released. Duke Nukem Forever will be completed. Hell will freeze over, pigs will fly and I'll say ye haw!

does this mean i'll get a raise?

[cfl99]

so with this article, can i infer that i'll get a raise and actually be able to afford a PS3, thus leading to it's market dominance? sweet!

I'll take a smaller check

[Mateo_LeFou]

I predict PS3 will only get 43%, not 44. I based this on some research and stuff.

I'm an analyst

[beckerist]

I'm an analyst and I say the NEO GEO is making a comeback!

Apparently the first three words of the previous sentence give me unlimited credibility!

SNK Playmore, where's my check?

Re:So who paid for the survey?

[Class Act Dynamo]

OK, I'll admit it. I paid for the survey. It's a long story...
