| c0rd said: Since the ball is in Nintendo's court now, the only way the lead can be taken away from them is if they're disrupted. This means another Wii-like breakthrough... a nextBox / PS4 with just upgraded motion controls, multimedia features and graphics cannot win. They will need a new weapon if they want to take Nintendo's new spot.

Sorry but I have to disagree with this statement , everyone would have argued the PS3 was sure to suceed based on the PS2's sucess in comparison to it's competiton but what everyone didn't anticipate was a change in the competition's strategy , Sony's success last gen was the main cause of their faliures this generation.
This generation will serve as a learning oportunity for Sony and MS in the same way that MS & GC learnt a lesson last gen ( obviously MS didn't learn as much as Nintendo) . Sony has far more development resources than Nintendo and even if they're aim isn't as good as Nintys when it comes to targeting this new demographic , they have a shit load of fire power.
Nintendo did what everyone least expected to do when the GC didn't suceed much , why would Sony do what everyone expects them to do when the PS3 isn't suceeding much ? it's ironic.
