i only agree with the part about wii 2. if all it will be getting from 3rd parties are 360/ps3 ports then when 720/ps4 release it would get dumbed down ports or no ports at all.

That would only be the case if third parties only thought of N6 as a platform to port to, and never seriously worked on making games for it. It'll be the critical juncture for Nintendo to attract third party focus to the console as more than just another platform in the multiplat chain in the time before PS4 and 720 release. If the market reorients itself in Nintendo's direction and the competitors overshoot again by releasing things more powerful than the markets demand, that whole situation could drastically reverse in one go

ps3 and 360 have more then 50% market share. they arent console more powerful then the market demands.
if tech wise its going to be the same situation as last gen and if the 720 and ps4 areant flops then we could have the same situation as last gen. unless nintendo are again market leader but this time with a console that sells loads of 3rd party hardware.
ps3 360 combined have more then 50% market share, so how did they overshoot market demand?

It took them about three and a half years to start taking marketshare back from Nintendo between the two of them. They offered more than what the market wanted or cared about in the beginning, though one could say futureproofing like that is a good thing (that the market will grow in to what you offer) I say its a poor fit for the gaming market
A massive third party conspiracy in their favor certainly helped, that the third parties bet on them, and have continued to follow the sunk cost fallacy in their investment in HD gaming through years of red ink. By bleeding red ink for three years, yes, Sony and Microsoft and the third parties behind them managed the 54.5% they currently enjoy between them

i do agree that 3rd party devs did suffer because of the hd twins, but as their market share show a majority of the public expect a tech boost between gens.
anyway if the wii2 will be able to sale 3rd party games then it could get more support then the wii, but unless the other two consoles are massive flops im not expecting many 3rd party exclusives(when it comes to big franchises)
