I'm going to take a wild guess and say these particular analysts merely looked at final tally from the 6th Generation and just predicted the same thing would happpen all over again.

 

 Then they are bloody idiots and should get fired. When looking at this generation there is one other generations that seems some what similar, which is the Nes Generation.

Like the Wii, Nes introduced a simpler control interface to interact with their games, compared to the keyboard/joystick. Back then all of those hardcore gamers then who were using then their Game centric PC’s was also blasting the controller calling it too simple and that it could not bring forth complex game play.

Like the Wii, People called the Nes a generation behind due to its 8 bit graphics processors, whilst compared to the PC’s which were 16 bit then. (There is a common misconception today that during the 8 bit days the Nintendo was competing against Sega. That is not true, Sega came into the console market a good 3 years after the release of the Nes, in Japan, and close to five years later in the western world, Nes’s competition was the game centric PC’s of that time)

Like the Wii. The Nes business strategy was formed with the success of a handheld (game and watch) which also launched a new control scheme.

And last but not least likee the wii, the nes totally dominated the competiton.

And Like the nes, it seems the wii maybe come a new standard in this industry.

If they Used the Whole history book of gaming, they would have seen this!!! Shame on them.
