Wii U gets its successor announced and released in 2016. PS5 comes out in 2020. PS4.1 comes out holiday 2016 and PS4.2 comes out holiday 2018. Other stuff happens with PS4 too. XBONE does not have a direct successor, but rather a home media device released in 2018 using the XBOX brand. The new device can play XBONE games however and cuts the system's life short.
Amazon releases their console in 2015 and it flops. They release a second console in 2019 to beat the PS5 to market. Their second system finds moderate success. Steam machines aren't a flop, but they stay incredibly niche having a very small impact on the console market until late in the gen. Samsung and Google also release consoles in 2016 to compete with Amazon but both machines find little success. They are micro consoles like ouya and sell more than Amazon's traditional console, but they make their companies less money. Neither get a successor.

Your quite the optimist. Where are all these new gamers coming from?

Well the babies grow up.

You think Wii U will sell 5 mil next year? Shouldn't this year be its peak?
