Most powerful console is never the best-selling

Hi,
      The Verge got me thinking about Project Scorpio, how it might be a bridge between PC and consoles and how a certain rule seemed to be true throughout console generations. I've noticed that for each of the console generations (console generations defined here) the most technically powerful is never the sales leader. I am defining technical power by tech specs like CPU, GPU and memory.

I thought it would break this pattern since the first gen PS4 was slightly more powerful than the first gen XONE. However, it seems that Project Scorpio will keep this pattern holding throughout the current generation.



Reasons for this pattern may be that powerful consoles usually are more expensive or come out late in the cycle. An extreme example of this is the Neo Geo. It was the most powerful but cost as much as a PC.



Any other thoughts? Do you think that there have been exceptions to this rule, and if so, which ones?


Please help.

Thanks!

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
