Some of the biggest launches of the year took place in September
-Destiny (biggest new IP of ALL TIME)
-China and T2 "boost"
Additionally, MS put out some nice bargains with a number of promotions (free games, gift cards, new bundles)
not every month will be like that.
There's a lot of gas in Ninty's tank. A number of games like Mario 3D World and MK8 will continue to have legs. And there's most certainly more great games coming for WiiU in 2015 than than 2014
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
