This. They ripped off MS once, and despite being able to periodically switch with AMD at GPU leadership, they are less competitive in the mid-range, where console manufacturers pick their models, so next gen Sony too will probably choose AMD. So, while it's true that PC is the single biggest platform and that it will be able to reach again a market as big as all consoles put together, predicting consoles dropping despite a growing trend is just sour grapes. I'm very happy about PC gaming performance, but no need to be bitter against consoles, nor to wish their decline.
This said, a real terrific PC growth, far bigger than NVidia predictions, could happen if Android were to dethrone Windows as its leader OS, unifying PC market with a large share of tablet and smartphone markets.
