With PS1 that attracted and retained mature gamers who were suffering from fatigue for playing the same game over and over again. 

What exactly are you basing this on?

With PS1 people got variety. Who wants to rescue a princess who has been kidnapped for the 100th time over and over again? Playstation 1 was about brand new IP and fresh take on gaming.

Ironic, condisering that PS1's 20 top selling games are actually just a variation 12 games, with only 8 of them being new ips, the rest being sequels or sequels to the new ips. If new experiences is what attracted consumers to the PS1, they sure forgot about buying new experiences once they got the console.
