yes indeed.
nintendo will be around, that's for sure. but a lot of people who don't really go for nintendo's game style will probably stop buying games if there's no other console around. that includes the 50 something million right now who bought a 360 or a PS3 instead of a Wii.
Sony and Microsoft are both still not exactly profitable in their gaming divisions. The publishers and the developers for their consoles are dying. Even giant corporations like EA are losing huge sums of money. When these pubs and devs decide to call it quits or go bankrupt, Sony and Microsoft would have no choice but to pull out of gaming because they don't have what nintendo has.
unfortunately, as said, the 50 million something people who bought a 360 or a PS3 are a totally different type of gamer. nintendo will surely keep it's user base, but the rest of the gaming market will crash.
