He's saying the Wii will probably follow the path that every market leader seems to follow - continuing to sell into the next generation. Generally the competitors don't manage to do that for a very long time, they get discontinued within about a year.

Well said. Put in such a way that even the stubborn fanboys should understand.....

Only Sony consoles have continued to sell into the next generations, and thats because they've been future proofed to an extent. The same will happen with the ps3 with bluray being the biggest factor.

*Facepalm*

The PS1 and PS2 were both inferior as far as power goes to their competitors, the reason they continued to sell had nothing to do with future proofing. The Atari 2600, NES and SNES all continued to sell into the next generation.

I can't find a single thing in your post that isn't wrong.
