It wont make much of a difference in software sales. At least half of the people that buy consoles are casuals that only buy 2 or 3 games all generation. And that goes for Sony and Microsoft too. Not just Nintendo. Casual gamers are all caught up in the mobile boom right now. Hardware will be significantly smaller this gen, but software will stay fairly close to where it was.
8th gen predictions. (made early 2014)
PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m
X1: 30-35m
3DS: 80-85m
PSV: 15-20m
