1) Interesting interpretation, but I was thinking more along the lines of "the system that consistently outsells its competition does so for the rest of the generation".

2) a.k.a. 4): Well, that's one shop out of many.

Historical evidence shows that the winning system of a generation has the longest lifecycle which would be the Wii this time. Now you might say that the Wii is different because it's so underpowered compared to its competition, but 25 years ago the NES was in the same situation. Production of the machine was stopped in 2002, although it only sold until 1995 or so outside of Japan.

Historical evidence also shows that most consoles peak in their third year and it seems the same will hold true for the 360.

i would say nintendo plans on replacing or offering a wii upgrade in not too long since nintendo seemed to let it slip about wii hd, but that seems wierd i though for sure they would stick it out until they thought the first of the hd consoles launched its next one

Tell me, where did Nintendo let it slip that they are making an HD Wii? There was a poorly researched article based entirely on speculation, but presented as if it were fact. I guess that's what you are refering to.

honestly i dont know if it was poorly reseached, but it was on wired, and giz, so i feel it has a strong posibility of ringing true
