I'd just like to point out that if you accept his two "facts" as postulates, the logic still makes little sense as people do not suddenly want to buy the next thing really bad from someone who made something terrible last time. That's like saying, "Gee, Baker Bob's muffins were really terrible yesterday. I want to get me some more of his muffins to get the terrible taste out." What's much more likely to happen is, "Gee, Baker Bob's muffins were really terrible yesterday. I want to get me some of Baker Bill's muffins to get the terrible taste out."

If something is teh suxorz, people generally don't stick around and wait for more because, more likely than not, it will be more of teh suxorz.

 I totally agree with you, but someone would just say this to your statement...

 

If baker bob's muffin's were always good in the past(NES, SNES, N64) and he made one bad batch(Gamecube) wouldn't you just try he next batch to see which way he goes....

 

I realize this is stretching it, but I'm just saying this is what someone could argue...

 

Sorry, I know you are trying, but lame metaphor. Muffins are cheap, disposable, and may fluctuate in taste daily due to a wide variety of factors. If people bought only 1 muffin every 5 years for $200+, and then had to worry about which spreads would be compatable with that muffin, then you'd be on to something.
