I think the sale paterns have change because of last gen, instead of seeing console peak at the 3 or 4 year mark we will see them peak on year 5 or 6

Why's that?

ps3, xbox 360

Sorry, I'm a bit slow and don't follow.

ps3's peak year is number 5 and 360's is 6, and with the 10 year plan from both Sony and microsoft plus the industry major players all trying to maximize profit as much as they can this gen will be long and I expect the ps4 and X1 to peak in there 5th or 6th year
