I was able to snag a PS4 on release day on Amazon and I've enjoyed it nicely so far. The last new Nintendo console that I got was a N64. In fact, my N64 is still the most recently released Nintendo brand console that I own. After the N64, I went to PS2, then PS3, followed by XBox 360, and now PS4. Nintendo consoles seemed to be geared more towards younger generations when the Game Cube came out and so on. That's why I went the PS2 route during that time period.
The consoles that I currently own are NES, SNES, Virtual Boy, N64, Xbox 360, and PS4. I still play my NES more than any of my other consoles because it's simply my favorite. Even after 25 years of playing, it's still my top choice. The main reason that I own an Xbox 360 and PS4 is for online gaming. Also, I will not be getting an Xbox 1. I plan on selling my Xbox 360 when my Microsoft subscription expires in a few months.
I feel like the Nintendo brand never really adapted with the generation that grew up playing it's earlier systems like the NES and SNES. Instead, Nintendo stayed geared towards younger age groups while the PS2 & Xbox geared more towards adults. Adults that grew up playing the NES and SNES. That's why I feel like Nintendo could be struggling as far as home consoles go.
