Forums - Gaming Discussion - A new console/handheld for 2009?

There won't be a new handheld/console platform until 2014.

Revisions however: DSi for the West is all I can think of. Probably new PS3 colours for the west too possibly with bigger harddrive, maybe a new 360 with a bigger harddrive too. Sony will probably skip PSP4k this year, but sales in Japan seem low compared to last year which could carry on to next year, so I wouldn't be surprised if they did announce it.



Bet - "PES 2009 (PS3) will sell (closer to) 150k first week in Japan" - Pooperscopper
"It will sell closer to 125k" - Me I agree.
ME = OWNED :(

End of '09 Predictions:

Wii: 78 million
X360: 35 million
PS3: 27 million

C'mon 2014 Oo? I think that sony really has to get rid of the UMD ASAP, so an annoucement at the tgs is not impossible. Concerning consoles, yeah I doubt it too. I really think a new psp is the only possible annoucement, but I doubt there will ever be a psp4k.



DSi Western release is pretty much certain
Multiple different colours of the Wii are 99%
360 slim is quite possible
PS3slim is unlikely imo
psp4000 is unlikely

PSP can still scrape 5-6 million sales next year, I don't think it's going anywhere for at least another 5 years.

There will be yet another PSP revision next year.

Might see Wii colors in Japan.

360/PS3 will probably continue their hard drive arms race. I'm thinking like a 500GB Elite model. ;>

A slim 360/PS3 don't seem out of the question to me, but I haven't thought much about it.

Agreed with DKII on Wii colors in Japan.

 lol arms race I like it.

I guess PS3 is winning now with the 160. 360 could counter with a 250gb or more
