Well I think many already have noticed the console audience is likely shrinking due to many casuals being content with mobile phone gaming. Family games and licensed film games are often mobile only these days. Sony's Vita was the first casualty in my opinion, while 3DS is doing significantly less than its predecessor. Japan is the country we look at where mobile phone gaming has had the most impact on the console gaming business. While the west is where its still most relevant. Its unlikely this gen will achieve sales at par with last gen because the market chagned. |
The Wii's success throws a curveball into comparisons between this generation and the last. Likewise, how will we account for Switch? What generation? Is it a console, or a handheld?
