Well the good news is that console sales can only go up from this point on. Combined sales are already at 1.2 million for this year and we still have Xbox One launch(not really big but still) and holidays to go. And PS4 doesn't even have any big games yet.

Besides look at 2005, there was a low point there to. Sure the market won't be as big as before but 2013 will show to be the low point, it's going to go up now.

im just not sure, if we see > 3 million ever again. probably not

 

edit:

2015 < 2014 can happen, too

Not sure what you meant with the edit but last year about 1 million consoles were sold from August till the end of the year. So if this year were to match that it would be 2.2 million for 2014. But Wii-U will probably sell more in Japan this year and PS4 wasn't available there last holiday so who maybe we will will see 3 million plus this year. And if not this year next year for sure, when PS4 finally gets some titles that will sell well in Japan.
