More accurately, we are just seeing a return to a normal market model for consoles, where there is a clear leader and the others trail behind. Last gen was a fluke. We had the high price of the PS3, and poor ports for about a year or so, cause many PS2 gamers to switch to the 360, so that group was split. And Wii basically brought in a lot of casuals, but they have moved on. So, what we are left with is a market similar to the 6th gen. In that gen, the Big 3 sold about 205M consoles. I think this gen will be very similar. Probably 125M-135M for the PS4. 40M-50M for the XBO. And 15M-25M (if they drop the price to $199 this year) for the Wii U.
