"The ‘Revolution’ will rip the Undershot Customer, i.e. the ‘Core’ Gamer, from the throne of gaming, and replace him with the New Customer as the lead customer to rule the Kingdom of Gaming."

And then these new customers will someday become core gamers, become snobby, and then have an even bigger snob write articles about them.

And then Nintendo will disrupt their market

I seriously doubt it would be Nintendo again.


They've done it once before, with the NES, so its a pretty good chance they'll do it again at some point

Sony did it once before with the Playstation, doesn't necessarily mean they'll do it once again. The only way Nintendo could really disrupt the market is if the market was in control of another company, and at that point, I see the disruption happening by a newcomer.

Sony didn't disrupt the console gaming market with the Playstation, what they did was transistion PC gaming to consoles.  And actually disruption doesn't have to be the result of the cmapny that is out of power, a smart company can realize when its right to disrupt its own market.
