Natal to X360 is what Wii to Gamecube

I am a Wii owner and I am scratching my head at this thread.

Keep the 360 alive as Microsoft's secondary console until 2015, sure.
Satisfy all 360 gamers for six more years while some pretty substantial gains in hardware are made, no.

I do not agree.  I for one would love to still get first run content on my 7-10 year old consoles... I don't want to buy another $300-400 console, I would rather buy 6-8 good games.

Additionally, the graphical and technological leap just won't be there in another 18 months.  Programmers aren't maxing out the potential of any these three consoles yet (in means of input or output).
