So how much does releasing a console first in a generation relate to sales?

Fairchild Channel F, TurboGrafx-16, Sega Saturn, Dreamcast, Xbox 360, Game.com and Neo Geo Pocket Color say hi.

Ummm... Xbox 360 has sold more units than all of those other systems COMBINED.

And the Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Sega Game Gear, N64, GameCube, Xbox and PS3 all feel their pain.

That may be true but the 360 was released in a larger market than any of those other systems and faced less competition.

PS2 and later PS3 and Wii is less competition? Ok...

360 continue to do well cause its a good system, now days it gets outpreformed by the PS3 though. But It still sells more games, so it looks like at least more people play on 360. Both PS3 and 360 got outpreformed by the Wii, but Wii has been the fastest selling stationary console ever, although now its slowly dying, there is still no way 360 and PS3 will ever catch up.
