Look at the handheld market 230 milliom with psp and ds to 85 million with with vita, and 3DS. look at how bad xbone and wiiu did compared to there predecessor. switch will start off strong , but it will slow down next year hard, i also expect ps5 and the nextxbox to  struggle, especially the nextbox,probably there last console.  

The thing is PS4 sold better than PS3 (so far) and XB1 is just a bit behind X360 numbers (though it has fallen off this year, it seems likely that the XBX will fuel a strong Q4 and bring it back in line).   Certainly handhelds are in a tough space, as mobile gaming has taken hold.  But, I don't see any evidence that home console sales are in bad shape, or even declining significantly industry-wide.
