As some of you have heard this generation of consoles most likely won't out do it's predeccssors, and i've heard some say this might be the last generation of dedicated gaming consoles.

I myself honestly think that the console industry is going to have to shrink or it will go under, in otherwords i think the industry is going to a have to go back to say a 5th generation or 6th generation sized market to stay profitable. This just my own idea, which i'm sure i'm not the first to have it but just thought i'd share it.

This wont be the last generation of gaming consoles because Jack Tretton, in an interveriew right after E3 2013, said that Sony is already working out the plans for the PS5 hardware.

The industry will get smaller and smaller, then slowly die out.

Then, about a decade later, a small, underappreciated company will RISE AND TAKE THE THRONE, thus reviving a dead industry! 

Praise PANASONIC!
