Would an industry crash be such a bad thing?

I'd be ok with a slight contraction but not a full-on crash.

We went from 22 billion in revenue for NA to under 15 billion in revenue for NA in the span of 4 years, and it's looking like we'll hit 11 to 13.5 billion for overall revenue for 2013.  7 billion and counting in lost revenue (Looking at NPD sales, we are dropping an average of 10 to 30 percent each month year over yearl) in the span of 5 years in a single market is indicative of more than just a slight contraction.  UK alone had a drop of 20% last year and Japan continues to drop as well.

well, during the Wii/Wii Fit boom time the industry revenue was bloated due to a lot of people who won't be returning customers buying into it pretty much all at once
