The next generation of consoles?

I think Nintendo will end up winning the next gen. They just know how to innovate and make money, and they've been doing it for decades. MS will come in second with the XBox 720 (if that's what they decide to call it). I think Sony will replace a PS4, but that will be their last console. Hopefully, Apple will enter the industry, and if they do, I think they'll end up pushing Sony and, in the long run, Microsoft out.

But then again, I may just be talking out of my ass.

I've been seeing a lot of people wanting Apple to enter the console market. I'll be honest, I really don't think it'll happen. Apple did it once before, with Bandai- a little system known as the Pippin. I also would not be surprised if the majority of you had not heard of this, which shows its success. I've also heard (though can't confirm) that Steve Jobs is not a big fan of games. I think that even the iPhone probably got more into gaming than he really wanted to...

Apple was a different company back then, not the consumer juggernaut it is now. Look at the iPhone, the iPod, and the new Macs. Since 2000, Apple has taken three different markets by storm. I'm pretty sure that, if they were to go into the game console business, they could do it again. Consumers would eat it up just like they ate up the Wii.
