Your argument is disjointed and flawed. There were plenty of games, maybe even the best games of last generation released the last 2 years of those consoles lives. God of War II, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Shadow of the Colossus all wave and say hi, they say they have about 20 other friends waiting to talk to you.
Plus the next twenty months puts us at what? Less than 5 years for the 360 and less than 4 years for the Wii and PS3? I dont know how much you make, but I make a good living, and the thought of 1,500 dollars worth of consoles all becoming virtually obsolete that quickly would make me just go back to PC gaming and dump consoles all together.
At least if I dump 1,500 dollars on a computer (sans monitor) today it could run most games on a degrading visual slide for the next 8 years. What you are basically saying is that Consoles and PC should switch their roles?
The big benefit of console gaming was having a machine that would be good for longer then a typical PC for gaming.
No, Im sorry but this consle generation will last at least 5-6 years, more than likely 6-7 years.
I own all three current consoles and a great gaming rig, now thats out of the way.

"Why post something like this when all it will get is PS3 owners blinded to reality replying? BOTH THE PS3 AND BLUE-RAY WILL NOT LAST 3 YEARS! TECHNOLOGY CHANGED TOO FAST!"
"is it Wii FIt that has sold as many as PS3's sold? Thats a LOL Look at the total sales of software is it just me that sees Nintendo titles hitting 10m+ and you say they arent making a difference? Another LOL!"
"Hell, with all the negative hype Sony spin, people just aren't interested cost is too high and to get the true HD experience (1080p, 7.1 surround) you will need a $1000+ system. THAT IS GOING TO DO IT IN A RECESSION! PS4 will not happen"
