Haven't we heard that credit cards would replace cash?

Or that videophones would replace telephones?

Or mobile phones would destroy handhelds?

Or that the NES is a fad and video games would only exist on computers?

Did any of these happen? No.

Consoles will continue to exist for a long time.

which country do ou live in? lol

most of those happened already.

Just how did it happen? More than half the earths population doesn't own a credit/debit card, most stores in most countries don't accept them either as they don't have a terminal.

Who in hell uses video calls? i mean seriously, i have not seen anyone use that function in any county i've been to for the past 5 years.

The third one is debatable, depends on how you percieve handheld gaming. I would actually agree that cell gaming destroys regular handheld gaming.

 

Third world and other eastern countries don't count. We're talking about civilized human societies who are able to function a TV, etc.

In these countries cash is no longer used (or at least hardly) and everyone uses video confrencing. I haven't seen anyone use telephones in over a year. It's very rare now.
