Last gen the PS2 sold 152 million + Xbox 1 sold 25 million + Game Cube sold 22 million...
That comes to 199 million consoles sold LAST GENERATION....
THIS generation the Wii has (so far) sold 99 million... The Xbox 360 has (so far ) sold 74 million..
The PS3 has ( so far ) sold 72.5 million..
THIS GENERATION COMES TO 248 MILLION CONSOLES SOLD ( SO FAR ) !!!
This means this GEN has outsold last gen by 30 million consoles so far !!!!
JUST because the console market share isn't growing in proportion to the population in the same percentage as the past... MANY FOLKS ( including the original poster ) want to believe ( or assume ) the market share has actually shrunk. It has not shrunk !!
It's time to quit listening to the 'experts' and start thinking and looking at the VERIFIABLE numbers I have posted.
It doesn't matter if the market share is growing slower on consoles.. Its still growing ( and even growing in a bad economy )....
Handhelds and smartphones will have a niche of their own.. BUT that niche will not in the near future replace playing on a 73 INCH Wide Screen TV !!
ENUFF SAID !!!
