Install base is not a direct measure of whether or not a platform is successful. A device that sells 30 million and earns the company a few billion in profit is far more successful than a device that sells 100 million and causes the company to lose a few billion. |
How right this is...
It's very sad that few gamers are interested in financial success or some think that a super huge installbase gurantees much money making...
It's not if you sell the hardware on loss for long and it can't be offset from software sales at least for some time.
