New IPs

~1m+ sellers (exc Nintendo)

3 years v 2 years. Bigger install base.

Quick-list. Not wholly accurate. Debatable 'new' IPs.

Looks to me like the CoD audience quickly jumped into the new gen and this gen is frontloaded.

Without the 1m+ shovelware cashins that the Wii/DS provided, there's less money in the pot for new IPs.

Install base argument is mute. I don't see how this gen is going to match last gen for successful (1m+) new IPs.

Yes. Sony and Microsoft's hunger for power will lead us to a world with overpowered consoles that still can't run games properly but cost hundreds of dollars and people buy remaster after remaster of the same bland games with the same white middle aged males firing guns endlessly. And then it will all go to hell.

the you realize how a wiiu cost more than a ps4 or xbox one with not even comming close to the power of these consoles

Damn You Nintendo :(

It doesn't matter, no one's buying Wii Us anymore.

There's the games crash, it's Nintendo's fault. Sony trying to pick up the slack but no one can make up the loss from a drop from 100 million consoles to 15 million.

thats a reslly strange way to make that list..... Why not just do first three years vs first three years?

So we should be looking at 2013-2016 for 8th gen and 2005-2008 for 7th gen. 

Another thing to consider is that with 8th gen, due to  the smaller leap from sub HD to full HD as opposed to going from SD to hd Meant that this gen had a lot more cross platform cross gen games than the last gen. Once the new hardware came out in 2005/2006 there were very fee games released across the PS2/xB and the PS3/360

He included cross-generation games in the list, he just missed tons. (I assume you meant cross-generation not cross-platform)

Shadows of Mordor
Rocket League
Knack
Star Wars Battlefront
Doom

Some of them the last-gen list are very questionable, Spore? That wasn't on consoles.

Wait.. mobile gaming is not gaming industry now?
