Pachter October US Predictions: 360 325k, PS3 125k, Wii 450k

[wraggster]

Ahead of the release of NPD's October hardware and software sales results, Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter and simExchange's Jesse Divnich have predicted the Wii will once again emerge on top of the hardware charts, and Activision will dominate software with Guitar Hero and Call of Duty.

Though the September release of Halo 3 saw Xbox 360 sales push just past those of the Wii, the analysts have said that despite hardware shortages, Nintendo's console will regain its top slot. Pachter has predicted 450,000 Wiis sold to simExchange's 467,000, ahead of their Xbox 360 predictions of 325,000 and 412,000.
Both see PS3 in last place with 125,000 and 136,000 units sold respectively, despite the 80GB model's recent price drop to $499.

We have already seen ds lite sales are higher than psp slim which is great Nintendo always remains top in portable gaming, i remember the n-gage qd was challenging gba well in the end gba was the winner n gage fails Nintendo has won twice in this scene.

The ps3 and 360 are not very demanding consoles after all not even the features did the job, Nintendo has proven right release a console just with pure gaming the wii has done really well this year including ds lite well done Nintendo.
