Console supremacy seems to come in the power of two's (historically speaking)
NES then SNES, PS1 then PS2 - almost like there's a short-lived loyalty from new gamers at the time of large expansions in the market.
People who were introduced to gaming on NES were naturally driven to get SNES, Same with gamers that started with the playstation brand. Plus with every new generation is a new generation of kids that will be raised on the popular system - a new generation that will have a short-lived loyalty to the brand that got them started.
I'm thinking that unless Sony and MS pull out something really spectacular - Nintendo will have advantage going into the next gen. due to the popular public opinion that it's enjoying this gen.
