The fact that expensive consoles sold poorly.

Define expensive. The PS3 did mighty well, and the base price (499$) today would be 650$ if you take into account inflation. Look, I'm not saying that I or most consumers don't want a cheap product, but considering this gen, I would be more than OK to pay for the extra oomph, and I bet most Sony/MS fans would be willing to do the same, so they can have a competent system 5-6 years down the line.

The ps3 did horribly bad until sony stripped what it could to make the price $399 and even then it was an uphill battle.

A competent system doesn't need to be expensive and most fans didn't do that for the expensive ps3 and xbox one.
