Well, that makes sense. Microsoft has been profitable for quite some time now so there's no reason to assume a new console would be a money sink.
Also did anyone really expect a 10 year life cicle for any console? Neither Microsoft nor Sony will give Nintendo a 2-3 year headstart. I could see a PS4 release later (like late 2013) since Sony still needs some time to recover enough of the PS3 losses and the NGP release in 2011/2012 will keep them busy.
E3 could get even more interesting now (and Nintendo will be under quite some pressure now haha )

true i think if the nintendo leaks didnt happen and nintendo not coming out and saying the cafe is real etc , i think at e3 nintendo wouldnt have pressure but looks like they might now woo

Well Nintendo has been really self-confident lately. Not arrogant yet but that could've happened had the 3DS been an explosive success. Nintendo only makes great products when they are under heavy pressure (read: when their handheld and console business is in danger) and pressure they deserve right now. It's like a rule of some sort: When you're too long at the top of the gaming industry you become arrogant and go crazy. It happened to Sony and it happens to Nintendo as well. Some years at the bottom really helped Sony to get their act together so maybe it will help Nintendo as well.
