That Genesis / Mega Drive data is laughably incomplete, it's actually over 40 million. I doubt that it would have been nearly as successful if it had not beaten the SNES to the market by two years. The 2600, NES, PS1, PS2 and 360 all benefited from the early launches; it's clearly a very important factor. Furthermore, I wouldn't really factor anything SEGA did after 1993 into anything and the WiiU is a special case to say the least. Also, your assertion that the 2600 is part of the third generation is hilariously incorrect.
