Consoles aren't dying, but publishers need to evolve

I think that by the next generation (not the up coming with WiiU, PS4 and nextBox - but the 9th gen) we'll see a more stabile gaming market: the freshness of mobile games will have worn off. The iPhone will be at least 10 years old when 9th gen comes, and the iPad will be at least 7, so by then I think we'll be able to see how the future for consoles will be like.

In 5 years we'll know how things will be the next 10-20 years of gaming. And if Nintendo manages to sell 50-75 million 3DS, they'll make more handhelds.

Or perhaps the future will be even harder to predict? Apple's market may keep getting greater for decades.

The only thing that would make it harder to tell the future is if iTV (or whatever it'll be called - they got that TV-box already, but I'm talking about an actual Apple TV) is released in 4-5 years time offering awesome game experince, OR PC's can over great virtual reality - you know, where you put on glasses and see everything in 3d... Something like that. Or maybe if we'll get small micro chips in out heads, streaming games directly to our brains rendering controls utterly obselete.
