The only problem with that is that we all know that PlayStation gamers mostly buy everything in the first 30 days, and Xbox gamers in the first 60 days.

Nintendo buyers mostly buy any 3rd & 1st party software & hardware throughout 5 years.

Ive seen it before, something releases on PS3 & 360, and it has no legs, but a great first 1 to 3 months, while something releases on Nintendo always has great legs but not much of a launch compare to its lifetime sells.

 The reason the Ps3 & 360 could take off after 4 years was because people finally had a HD TV, to truely enjoy the feature (a lot of consumers perspective), but the PS4 & ONE are offering mostly the samething for gaming. That's like the Wii U only doing more WiiMote gaming from the Wii, it's bad marketing and it won't hold up after launch is over.

Yeah that's totally what happened with PS1 and PS2 as well, I've never seen such a shoddy argument backed up with no proof whatsoever, at first I though you were talking about games, but no, hardware! You heard it here folks, Sony and Microsoft hardware is frontloaded. Hilarious.

No, you're hoping it is. They'll trend similar. If anyones hardware is frontloaded lately it's Nintendo's. Wii didn't last anywhere near as long as PS360, and WiiU still got more than 50% of its current sales in its first 6 weeks.

Sounds reasonable. The PS2 sold 150m units in 30 days and then completely died off. 

Of course, how did I miss that?!

What makes it funnier is, it looks like 3DS has had its peak year already.
