If you've already got Madden 2008, are most people really going to go out and buy Madden 2009 the next year? If you've already got a bunch of great titles and are still playing them are you going to be as likely to go out and look for new stuff to play, especially if you can borrow from your friends?

Yes but Madden 2008 or 2009 has nothing to do with the console they are on. Consumers will not buy a product if they do not offer something new, improvements over the prior version (that validates a purchase), or desired (or pushed hard enough to create one by advertsiging). Madden games do not offer enough incentives for the users to buy a newer version. Buy for example UC2 offered a mch different and better experience than UC1 so people buy it. This has nothing to do with the console they are on tho. Two very different product life cycles.

Consumers only buy product if they are dis-satisfied with their present situation. If they are completely satisfied with the games they are currently playing they will not go out and buy new ones. However new console owners buy a lot of titles within the first few years of ownership because they are starting from 0. They have nothing in the library, so how can they be satisfied with what they already own?
