If your point is that the well is bound to dry up, that's just plain wrong. Families might buy more than one because they don't want to share. If more than one member is a gamer, that's definitely the case. Some people might buy more than one because they don't want to switch it from tv to tv.

There's 11 billion potential costumers out there. 80 million consoles sold hardly dries up the well.

How did you get the 11 billion figure?

It rhymes with 7...

 

EDIT , you beat me to it!

 

In reality though, the pool is much smaller than 7 billion. A massive chunk of the planet's population struggle to feed themselves, never mind stump up $400 for a games console... You then have a tonne of people who missed the boat on gaming : 50yo +, you're not going to convert a meaningful fraction of them to PS4 (Wii Sports maybe...)
