If anything, this should prove that with the exception of two titles in particular (MGS4 and FFXIII), its not game releases that push new console sales this gen but redesigns and price. Maybe there have been others, but those stand out to me in particular because the Japanese consumers flocking to those launches.
This gen is continuing to defy expectations, and that makes it so interesting to me (so frustrating for others). The additions of Move and Kinect later are going to make it even more confounding and I can't wait. The industry is in flux and constant motion, and that's healthy.
Lastly, to have console owners of three, yes THREE, different consoles all seeing impressive sales and a wide variety of games for their platform with no signs of slowing this late in a gen? Good time to be a gamer . . .
