Yes. While current-gen systems were up YoY, continuing rapid decline in last-gen console sales effectively negated it: graph |
It seems the huge lack of pricecuts for last gen has negatively affected effective total hardware sales this gen. I honestly was expecting PS3 to get price cut years ago and leg out to 100m, but it is apparent without price cuts that it would be impossible. This has also slightly helped the new gen sales early gen.
And by slightly I mean that without software early gen these consoles don't move as fast as a late gen pricecut would.
