How is it impossible that there's a decline? So if something has experienced growth over time, it is impossible for it to enter a state of decline? That's how markets work, all of them.

The Wii alone sold more than the PS4, One and Wii U combined at this point in time during the first summer with all three out, this is nothing short a clear-cut indicator that we're seeing a market contraction and the front-loaded launches only show that consoles are being more affected by revisionist design philosophy like tablets and phones and the overall market movements in consumer electronics as a market segment.

There will be a decline, to deny that is folly at this point.

Meh, the decline in consoles is mostly from the wii going to the the wii U. There is not really a decline for the MS and Sony consoles. Thus some of us are not very concerned about the decline.

Pretty much this. Everyone seems to be comparing the PS4 and Xbox One to the Wii instead of the disappointing console that actually is its predecessor.
