The 180 was definatley necessary, after that i saw many people calm down and start talking about getting one again. 


People freaking on internet foruns does not represents the entire population of gamers.

But the toxicity back in June was desgusting and could have influenced some early adopters. But in the long run it wouldn´t make a difference.

As we have seen this last 2 weeks, great games sells consoles, not pixel counting or "we are the good guys". Not forgeting the price, of course.

Maybe people freaking out on the internet does not represent much, but the state of the pre-orders sure do. And we all saw the boost it got on pre-orders after the 180.  And just to give you my personal example, I'll tell you that now I believe I might get one someday (or even now if I had the money) but if things had stayed the way they were before, there is no way in hell I'd would ever touched one of those things.
