5 years used to be the norm, not so much anymore.

 

DS-6.25 years

PSP-7 years

360-8 years

Wii-6 years

PS3-7 years

 

All of the previous generation consoles had a 6-8 year cycle before their successor released and since 2004, Wii U is the only console to be replaced in under 6 years and that was because it was a massive flop.

First off, I was talking about HOME CONSOLES. Second, last generation was more of an aberration. The PS4 was pretty weak compared to PS3 which was vastly more powerful than PS2... which allowed it to stretch the gen. 

Ok home consoles, that doesnt change anything about my last post.

Also, how do we know its an aberration and not the market changing?
