Whenever I see such posts I just wonder - what happened to 2007-like sales? Financial crisis? Or general boredom with gaming?
I wasn't here on 2007 so I can't tell.

http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/39110/Global/

DS 380,526 (+24%) 36,093,151
Wii 251,288 (+2%) 4,007,149
PSP 162,208 (-4%) 20,351,200
X360 113,045 (-3%) 8,480,456
PS3 74,220 (-7%) 1,632,136

Refrasing: WiiU is doing close to 1/3 360 was doing at a similar time frame and 1/2 PS3´s (a machine that costed 2x que WiiU current price )

If you look at those number you can see that the generational difference in home consoles isn't that big actually.

January 27th, 2007: Wii+360+PS3= 14mil consoles

January 26th, 2014: Wii U+X1+PS4= a little less then 14mil consoles
