S.T.A.G.E. said:

I know. The Wii broke the market by intoducing people who dont game into gaming (thats a lot of people and easily explains going from 20M+ in sales to 99M). The financial momentum died because of two things:

1: Limited supply that kept demand high for a couple years.

2: The Kinects entrance caused the casuals to turn their heads in the of the direction of the 360 when the PS3 was outselling it by 4th quarter 2010. It sold 360's like hotcakes and the Wii's fire went stagnant in 2011 because of it. I wouldnt be surprised if the Kinect has outsold the original Xbox by now.

The Wii went stagnant in 2011 for one reason, and it wasn't Kinect or supply; games simply stopped coming. It was doing just fine right up until then.
