No, consoles can't be replaced by portables. Consoles are about social gamming in the living room. That's why almost every game requires split screen co op of some sort. That social experience can't happen on portables or on pcs. Only a comparable gamming console can replace it but even Apple cannot fight Sony Microsoft and Nintendo on that turf. Not with there cheesy mobile games. Ip's like mario,zelda ,wii fit, halo, and GT garantee that they are here to stay. Its the mobiles that are up for grabs but there all different. I-phone is hurt because they are exclusive to At&t but windows mobile can invade any carrier with any third party manufacturer. Nintendo has grade A branding on par with disney. The PSP is probably dead. I don't see their hook. Their technology is dated, games aren't that good, games don't sell, and hardware is declining.
