For the record about 3D:

The 3DS is selling about as much each week as the PS4.

3D TVs have always sold better then HD TVs during same point in life spam, even with increase in price these past 2 to 3 years for any 3D TV. And the Year on Year sales are still up every year.

More then most people choose 3D screenings over 2D screenings (especially outside of America). Just look at Avatar in 2010 making 70% of its profit from 3D screenings in America, but then Gravity in 2013 hit 80% in America for 3D screenings. But 3D screenings always get 88% in all other Countries combine for non-USA screenings.

If anything, no one is buying HD from TVs to caring to go to theaters for HD to buying PS3/360 over Wii. The PS3 sold to 30 to 50 million different individuals, and so did the 360, but the Wii sold to 100 million different households, which is one system per several individuals.

HD has always been a pure marketing adverstising branding thing that couldn't sell that well. I mean there's a 50 year gap between color TVs release and HD TVs release, but 3D TVs had only a several year gap between them and HD TVs.


The 3DS is also tracking so far behind the original DS that it will be lucky to sell half as many units over its lifetime. Also, your statement that the PS3 only sold to 30 to 50 million individuals is so asinine I had to do a double take. Do you actually believe this to be true? Again, the gamepad was a terrible investment. If your console is going to do a terrible job with multi-platform games it should at least be cheap.

The PS3 & 360 broke down on people a number of times per every other time.

There were other people who constantly bought a new one for more internal memory.

And up to 1% of owners max, had bought a ton of them to try to create a emulator and/or try to do something else with it. Let's say 0.01% or much lesser.

The PS4 & X1 doesn't suffer from these problems. Well, a few people still had their PS4 or X1 broke, but very few. Plus 500 GB toke care of the internal memory problem, so a lot of consumers could just buy one in the first year of release.

I that I think of it, Nintendo should someday release a 500 GB model of the Wii U in 2015 or 2016, since they clearly won't do it this year.
