Oh. Then what was your point? There's no denying that most of the apparent "contraction" is due to Nintendo's recent fall from grace after enjoying a few short years at the top of everything.

3rd party publishers failing again and again to make a viable profit on Nintendo's consoles, while many of them enjoy massive successes on MS and Sony's.

Yet here you are saying MS and Sony are to blame. I don't get your logic.

Mummelman said that: And guess which manufacturer will contribute the most to the coming market contraction?

I was saying that this industry is dying for other reason: High costs.

So really not very relevant to the thread then? I thought you were basing it on this week's hardware sales.


Of course i am!! With sales like this weeks, do you think any third party can make a profit?

Yes...I don't see why not. PS4 has a bigger userbase than any console before it at the same point in time, combined with amazing 3rd party sales (which Wii didn't have). Sony winning over Nintendo can only be a good thing for the industry as a whole, since Nintendo were practically the only ones that profited from Wii (and the random 3rd party here and there) while Sony consoles usually sell 3rd party software really well.

Ok, long live PlayStation!
