People were really tired of having the PS3/360 generation go on so long. They wanted to upgrade badly, that's why PS4/X1 are selling so well.
Nintendo had a good window of opportunity to move in and take advantage of this, but as per usual, they missed the bus. Trying to to awkwardly succeed the Wii instead of making a proper next-gen console. I think if Nintendo had been sharper they could have carved themselves out a fairly comfortable no.2 spot this gen as MS has not been particularily sharp.
