Because of my FIRST sentence.. This will not be a 8+ year generation.  I believe it will only be 5 years..  so that takes away 3-4 years of sales...  I still have the PS4 outselling the PS3 in 5 years span..    The X1 was ahead of the X360 in its first 6 months.. being way more expensive and in way less countries..  so I still see it doing decent in the long term.. with the price drop especially.  

But it all comes down to a shorter lifespan for this generation.

Well, gen lenght is debatable. But is is still tracking ahead of PS1 and 2, both with 5 year normal cicles. So your point still isn't valid.
