This is just completely wrong.

• The PS3 sold just over 30 million units in its first 3 years (2006-2009)
• The Xbox 360 sold 28 million units in its first 3 years (2005-2008)
• The PS4 has sold 53 million units in its first 3 years (2013-2016)
• The Xbox One has sold 26 million units in its first 3 years (2013-2016)

That works out to 58 million sales of Xbox and Playstation in the first 3 years last generation and 79 million sales of Xbox and Playstation in the first 3 years of this generation.

Yes, the Wii sold 67 million units in the first 3 years last generation to about 12 million Wii Us in the first 3 years, but using those numbers to try and paint the console market as a dying industry is incredibly disingenuous. The Wii numbers are an anomaly because people who don't play video games were buying the Wii and those same people didn't even know the Wii U existed. The removal from the market of those non-gamers that bought Wiis to bowl and play tennis is not remotely indicative of the health of the console industry.
