| curl-6 said: Not every PS2 owner ran out and bought a PS3 in its first year. Does this mean nobody played their PS2 after a month? |
They were most likely playing the Xbox 360.
See, the difference is, when the PS3 launched, it sold over 9 mill by the end of the first full year, despite it launching to a market with two new and well-selling consoles on offer, being painfully overpriced and hated by mass media, not just gaming media, ALL media.
WiiU launched in a market with nothing but aging old consoles, and barely scraped 5 mill by the end of the first full year.
If PS2 users were getting bored, they had two options for a full year, Wii or X360
If Wii users were getting bored, they had just one option for a full year, WiiU, despite this very few of them took that option, so it stands to reason that very few of them were still around.
