ok, i see more of the reason why youre saying its unrealistic. you have not explained what you meant by that at all yet, so i was left guessing.
im talking about a relative decline. marketshare is all relative, so it doesnt matter if summer is a slow period for console sales. so im not really sure that has anything to do with it. reasons for the increase in wii u and xbone are obvious, and the decline for ps4 is obvious too.. ps4 has done virtually nothing, as most people have pointed out, while ms and ninty made moves. are junes numbers indicative for the rest of the year? thats the question here. im willing to be they are. we all know mario kart and many other nintendo games have been titles with huge legs. this is going to sustain sales. also keep in mind that a HUGE amount of people are waiting for the wii u. people dont want to pay 300 dollars for this machine, but they want one. im not sure the same can be said for ps4. very rarely do you hear about people waiting it out to buy one. xbox one, im willing to bet this price cut and master chief collection are going to keep sales at a point that, when combined with wii u, will be more than ps4. sony will get a huge boost from destiny while nobody else benefits from that, we all know this. will that plus anything else they have keep them above 50% marketshare? im not certain, but i am willing to bet that no, its not; there's too much good shit on the other side for me to see this happening.

There is so much wrong with what you have said here that I don't know where to begin.
You are right with one thing though, market share is a relative thing. But everything else you have said after that, is just flat out wrong. Especially that HUGE amount of people waiting for the wiiU bit. Makes everything you say come off as fanatical at best.

thats what i have gathered from my experience. people dont want to pay 300 dollars for a wii u. id say a 50 dollar price cut for wii u would do more for their sales (percentage wise) than a 50 dollar price cut for ps4. of course this is just a guess, based off experience. people dont mind a 400 dollar price tag for ps4. they do mind a 300 dollar price tag for wii u. i think thats just the way it is.
