"as I already said, historically it is always the most popular console of a generation that is kept on the market for the longest time"
My referring to 'historical trends' and yours is obviously different. You see in this example you're looking at it from a predictive point of view (i.e how we would see it) while I'm looking at it from Nintendo's point of view.
OF COURSE accurate predictions can be made based on history. I'm only referring to Nintendo's strategy and how that relates with the history of the market.
This is the sum and substance of my point: Nintendo won't make decisions such as whether to launch first or not simply based on what it's done in the past. That's all.
