I imagine so yes. However, perhaps a greater factor here is the DS. I think PS4 is actually selling at a faster rate than the Wii did back in it's heyday, and people fo mostly still buy physical games, even though digital sales have risen. The biggest difference between 2008 and 2015 I think would be the DS. Software sales for the DS were through the roof also. There is no comparable handheld that sells that well anymore.
