I guess you are really off from the point.
Install base of course affect sales. Most if not all disagreeing on this is on people that think it scales linearly. If Xbox One had 100M userbase would Halo 5 launch be 30M sales (around 5M LTD now on 15M userbase on launch)? Nope. So if someone says 3DS having 3x more userbase contributed to a 10% difference in sales against PS4 version that is a very strong possibility. Can you see the difference between small bump and linear scalability?
