I think Sony's time in the video game business is nearing its end. If they croak then it will be someone elses turn to try out the video game industry. I can really see Apple getting into it; Sega would be great but I really doubt it.

No way!  Sony is not almost out of the video game industry.  Not dominating for one generation is not going to make them leave.  They will take a deep breath, step back, and evaluate the situation.  Then they will take whatever course of action they feel is necessary.  I'm pretty sure that they won't make most of the same mistakes with the PS4 that they made with the PS3. 

1. Not too long ago people were saying these things about Nintendo.  Now look how they are doing.

 

I'm not saying that Sony will return to dominance next generation but stranger things have happened.  I think that they will learn from many of their mistakes.

 

@ OP.  2. If anyone is going to enter the race it would be Apple just to spite Microsoft.

 

 

1. True, but Nintendo still made a couple of billion dollars in profit on the Gamecube.  Thus far, Sony's been working themselves to the bone to find ways of reducing losses.  I'm not saying I agree with Warmachine, but it's definitely at aleast a slight possibility.

2. What a vengeful industry we would have, then!  Out of four competitors, three would have entered simply to stop up one of the others!
