12-16x jump? HIGH END DUAL GPU PERFORMANCE? You are way overblowing it.

The PS3 was like a 10x jump.

Beyond 3D are expecting PS4/Next Box to be a 8x-10x jump and 3x-5x the power of Wii-U. 

So Wii-U is expected be like, a quarter of Xbox Next/PS4.

If they launch in 2014, then I can see your 12x reasoning happening but not for a 2013 launch.

Vita uses conservative off-the shelf part, it's not as cutting edge as PSP was at its' time.

And I still stand by my statement that Sony and MS will be releasing systems built more like the systems of the previous generations and not over-heating, noisy, over-sized, unreliable hardware that cost them so much this gen.

Yes the PS3 was a 10x jump after just 6 years that was my point we are closing in on 8 years, hence why a PS3 style throw as much tech as possible ignoring reason and cost console in 2013/14 would be more like 14x the current generation.

One poster does not a consensus make and nether of those posts contradict what I have been saying at all. All along I have been saying that next box and PS4 would be 6-10x the current generation and the Wii U arround 2-3x.

The Vita does not use just off the shelf parts, it is the only system that uses a SGX543MP4+ it was custom for the Vita saying it is off the shelf is like saying that the Xenos in the 360 was off the shelf because it's a tweaked X1900 chip. It is currently the most powerful mobile device out there and likely will be atleast until the iPad 3 if it does use a retina level display 2048x1536 as rumoured, because they are going to need a hell of a GPU to keep the UI resopnsive at that resolution.

And I stand by my statement that with 8 years of tech advances they won't need an overly hot, big and noisy console to make a generational leap.

And given how well the 360 worked out for MS this generation I doubt they would want to change stratergy to much, I mean they went from 24 million to 60+ and turned a profit in the last few years that is a massive win for them, I don't see how they would consider it a failure.
