I'm not talking the massmarket, I'm talking the vocal hardcore.  I'm talking the current 360/PS3 base.  In another year or two, they'll be getting the itch (some are already) and Nintendo coming in with their next gen release will just push the next cycle question to the forefront.  The massmarket will be just transitioning to HD systems though (and it's already started), which is why we'll see Wii 2 within 2 years from now.

And the reason PC isn't forging ahead is actually because of the HD consoles, they've basically eaten the PC market and they're holding back PC game development due to their inferior spec.  PC tech can destroy 360 and PS3 in capability, but the market's just not there to support a developer putting in that sort of effort.


Errr do you really think the 30 or so million people that will purchase a HD console this year are the vocal hardcore ???

Got to wake up, mass market customers have been purchasing a HD console the last 2 years...

Uh, yes?  Hence me saying "and it's already started".  That's exactly why Nintendo's not going to wait another 2-plus years.

I'm awake, learn to read. <3
