Looks alright.

And I have a feeling they will be even lower next year.

Really horrible for Nintendo ... lowest since 1995, that's before even the GBC launched.

Sony should ramp up this year with more PS4 inventory, but Vita is a giant black hole for them.

Not really a problem. Looks like a slimming and focusing on the core demographic. I doubt software sales will fall as sharply.

Awesome. I love data like this. We need more charts like these!

I just hope the combined number never gets lower than 1997...

This year will again be bad, there is really little to drive next gen adoption rate this year (MS and Sony should kiss Ubi for that Ass Creed) and Wii U is gonna Wii U I assume, handhelds are dropping like a rock, with Vita dead in the West.

2015 should see a good bump unless every delayed releases before April 2015, then FY 2014 might not be that horrible

Thanks for the data.

That Nintendo is also why people who think Nintendo can go years without a new hardware refresh are nuts. They are going to fall to 1995 levels soon. 

DOOOOOOOOOOOM FOR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think consoles are as doomed as Watch Dogs was before launch, right Kowen??

Seeing as these charts include handhelds, is anyone even remotely surprised by these numbers? Were it not for the sudden huge rise and then "fall" of handheld gaming the charts would look a lot more consistent.
