Game consoles don't generally have an 'early adopter' phase. There's usually adequate hype to sell massively at launch, and then sales pick up as exclusives come along.
Wow, could you be more wrong. You bet they have early adopter phases, those people who are willing to pay the high price and live with the problems that come with new hardware are early adopters. Once the PS3 has fallen into a price that the "average" tech-savvy consumer is willing to accept, then you'll see the early majority kick in (the problem is that this is where the 360 is now and why it's kicking the PS3's ass in sales). Sony knows that it's going to be many years before they reach late majority phase which is why they're pushing this console to be a "10 year project". That's not to say we won't see a PS4 in that time, but I'm sure it'll be damn close to that 10 year mark.
 
I'm not an elitist, I'm a gamer - those lines that the PC or Console elitists draw are the boundaries of their ignorance.
