Not to argue with anything anyone has said here.
I was at a games conference (GCAP) 3 weeks ago and i sat in on a PP talk and as far as I could tell the direction was a large increase on cores. In the direction of 128 cores.
I believe the future in games is the challange to take advantage of this mass amount of processing power.
Apart from that if you want to think of what the future could be, you should look at the main issues with programming games. aka resource and memory management.
Nintendo = Innovation = Wii
