What I cannot begin to fathom is why, every single person who says no games and clarifies that none of the games appeal to them some how believe that their subjective opinion is useful at all when discussing the objective fact of game console sales.
Its probably some kind of immaturity, naivete, and ignorance of how the market and industry operates. I for example; despise Angry Birds, Flappy Birds, Cut the Rope, Clash of Clans, Candy Crush practically all of the popular games on mobile. But I also recognize that this is my personal preference, and that the personal appeal of any of the games is completely irrelevant to the topic of smartphone game sales.
The simple answer to the question why is "X selling, it has no games is?" is because nobody gives a flying fuck about your opinion, it has no bearing on reality whatsoever.
Attempting to qualify it by placing artificial limits such as console exclusive games or Microsoft/Sony exclusive is just as pointless because only the minority of consumers are considering this when they purchase a console.
It simply comes to price and value, the more games a console can play the higher its value is with regard to gaming. If a game can only be played on a system, hence an exclusive it raises its value even higher. But being multiplat does not mean that it does not add value to the console as well.
