MS will be the first to release a new console (around early 2011). By that time X360 will be ahead of PS3 by around 5 million units.
Both Sony and Nintendo won't release a new console before 2012.
MS new high-production-cost machine will be killed by PS3/Wii-2 multiplats since third-party support will shift very slowly to PS4/X720.

 

I think Nintendo has a good chance of being the first as well.  It wouldn't take much effort to make an HD Wii that works 100% with SD Wii titles flawlessly.  They did the same thing with their handheld consoles, moving flawlessly from Gameboy to Gameboy Advance to DS without a single bump.  Nintendo's handheld monopoly has been an object of jealousy for whomever tried to go head to head with them.
