If all the console manufacturers switch to paid online gaming (as some people are suggesting here), that greatly increases the probability that I never buy another console again.

Nintendo won't do it, Iwata's even spoken out against time based fee models.

They could charge in other ways, but they'll never do a weekly/monthly/annual fee for service.
