I'm not convinced brand played as much of a factor as some believe.

Look at the number of consumers who went from the PS2 to the XB360. Now look at the number of consumers who went from the XB360 to the PS4.

I'm not going to say that the gaming consumer is fickle; they're generally well informed and capable of making a decision based upon something more than loyalty to a particular service or brand name.


I 100% agree.  People play up brand loyalty WAYYYY too much.  At the end of the day most people do revaluate every generation.  There are almost no free sales for MS or Sony.



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.
