In terms of marketshare, they've already gone up. ;)

Even if they don't catch the Wii, they won't end this gen in dead last. All they need to do for next is not release with the exact same issues (and we now know, at least one of them is already 

Well that's not true.  There are plenty of other issues they could have that could fuck them up.

I mean, imagine if the online DRM instead of MS.

 

That said.. even if they did reease with the exact same issues they had last gen.  I think they would do better then they did this gen.

I mean, I think it's a pretty uncontroversial statement that the Wii U is a step back then the Wii in terms of popularity and sales.

Xone.  Also seems like a step back.  To me at least.

It has a slight chance to way outsell even the wii, but if it does, I think the Xone will sell on the merits of being a wirless media hub that plays games.  Which, whether you'd count it at that point or not would really be up to you.   As someone on this site jokingly put it to me. "If it does it will win this generation like Samsung is winning the handhed wars".

You just added to a list, doesn't make what I said "not true". ;)

Besides, I can imagine a lot of things, but right now, they are not headed down a similar path that lead the PS3 to be in 3rd place.


Sure it does.  If you say the only beef you like is steak and hamburgers, and i point out that you also like beef tacos, it makes what you said untrue.

 

Semantics aside... i'm more interested what you think about the other point.  That is, that even if they would of made the same mistakes with the PS3.  That console would have a MUCH easier time then the PS3 did.

Wii U is tracking a lot like the 360 and PS3 did last gen, but i want to say a little worse... and the Xone stuff so far is so negative it seems worse then the 360.  So a system with "just as many mistakes as the PS3 did" would seem to shine by comparison.  Espiecally considering how close then PS3/360 always were even with the PS3's deficits.
