Sony.

Wii U will secure the casuals by launching one year earlier and being much cheaper and Sony will secure the hardcore by having the most powerful hardware and most exclusives while MS will be stuck in no man's land.

Sony tried to secure the "hardcore" audience this generation by doing just that, but even the "hardcore" gamers think with their pockets. Of course, there is another scenario where Sony skips anything Kinect/motion control related (highly unlikely) which makes them able to keep their price below Microsoft's despite having a more powerful hardware. I don't see that happen though. And as for exclusives, people prefer quality over quantity (again, because of their pockets).

Yeah, Sony probably won't have motion controls built in, which will free resources toward really powerful graphics capabilites.
