Merely asserting something doesn't make it so. As the PS3 & 360 had unprecedented sales curves with peaks later than any other systems in history, it's incumbent on you to demonstrate why this is the "new normal." So please, articulate your case for this in greater detail. |
Using 2 decade old sales hmm Maybe project record sales based of the early 90s next ? lol
Any sort of guess based of numbers is done by using the last ones available as they will be more closest reflection of current trends and not decades old ones. Likely used casue it fits your hopes and opinions.
1 majority console sales are no longer reside in US and Japan two rich states that due to wealth meant peak years happend earlier. For many markets to buy into the console the price needs to drop. As shown last gen.
2 Games take longer, incentive to buy into a gen early is not there like it once was. PS2 had an awesome line up early on, thats just not happenign these days.
3 basic logic, PS4 will sale more at 199 with GTA and GT then it does at 399 with Killzone and Infamous.
