Like I said, minor declines.
PS4+XBO
2014-22.5
2015-26.1
2016-26.0
2017-28.0
2018-22.7 (3 weeks to go, 25-26m total)
Consoles cant just have infinite growth, they have to come down at some point and the 5th year of a consoles life having a decline is normal, it has nothing to do with Switch and everything to do with these consoles starting to reach market saturation with combined sales of ~130 million.
PS2+XB & PS3+360 each did ~175 million which is right about where PS4+XBO will end up.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
