Exactly, Japan is irrelevant in the console wars now. They've gone to mobile gaming and I heard arcade games are still popular there. Only places that really matter is North America, UK and a few other european countries like Germany. As long as Microsoft still has a foot hold in North America and UK, xbox one will be relevant. End of story.

Pretty much this.
It's a funny topic really. I would be more concerned if I was Sony. The long term money isn't in any console business. It's in content distribution. That is where MS is aiming with Win10/Xbox. Sony has what, 30 million-40 Million install base? MS has a quarter Billion and counting every second. Selling the most losss leading consoles isn't much of an achievement for anyone anymore. Sony is making the short term cash on the PS4 for sure. What sony has that is more valuable will be its well managed IPs. Some day, they will be worth atleast 1/4 of nintendos and probably 2-3 times microsofts core(excluding Minecraft) xbox titles.

You are wrong on so many levels and I can't even or rather don't have the strenght to say em all.
There will always be a market for consoles. and that market will always be larger than the PC market with regard to game sales simply because of pricr and simplicity. It's been happenning for 25yrs+. it's not going to stop now simply because u can download games.
Anyways, keep telling yourself whatever you seem to be telling yourself.
