Before this gen started I thought:

The Wii would flop: did not see the appeal
The 360 would do much better than xbox and would be close to the PS3
The PS3 would emerge as the eventual winner.

All of those were wrong. So my predictions don't hold to much water

WiiU: I once again do not see the appeal of it. It feels like a half step to next gen and not appealing enough to the casual the same way the Wii was. I believe it will sell very well on the back of being the Wii successor. Not enough for first.

PS4: I believe sony will be a toss up between a strong second and a horrible third.

Nextbox: This next gen winner. MS just gets it from a marketing stand point.

You do not see the appeal of the Wii U? Why because you haven't seen any Wii U games yet? Half a step to next gen? And you are basing this off what?

PS4: Why do you believe this?

Nextbox: And once again you are basing this off what? OH WAIT! Let me just remind you if the Nextbox is goint to win next gen (sales wise) the Japanese will have to buy it. Not very likely to happen. And you say that MS gets it from a marketing standpoint. Well then they should have been in first place ever since if that is the case because I haven't seen better advertising than how the Wii was advertised. Just saying bro.

 

WIIU: I don't see much appeal in the tablet.  Sure there could be some interesting ways to use it but not enough to convince me to buy the system.  I do not think casuals will find it as interesting as motion controls.  Games aside, we only have hardware to judge right now.  The half step comment has to do with how much power its incresing over the current gen.

In my opinion ninty will fail to capture the hardcore/core, excluding the Ninty fans.  I also doubt they can retain as many casuals as before with the Wii.

PS4: Because Sony has the right tools for success but in the past has made some horrible mistakes.  I know nothing off their console I basing it off their track record.

Nextbox:  The idea that MS needs a fading console market to win next generation is silly.  The xbox was a brand new console and managed to defeat veteran Ninty.  The following generation they did even better.   I do not like MS, and do not want them to win the next generation but from my point of view they look like there in a good position to take it.  Once again lil to nothing is none about there console, so we cant kno for sure.

Wii U: You do not see much appeal in the tablet controller you say? May I remind you what Apple is doing to people's wallets with tablets right now? Do you not see the potential in this controller or are you not impressed by progress? You do not think casuals will buy into it, although it is revolutionary once again. Come on man. The half-step comment is also very ignorant because you do not know the power of Wii U, PS4, or Nextbox for that matter, thus you CANNOT make a valid comparison. So do not fool yourself with such ideas -_-

PS4: No comment.

Nextbox: Fading? Are you sure? Would you be willing to bet Nextbox could outsell Wii U without being launched in Japan? Xbox defeated Nintendo? Oh you mean Gamecube, by outselling it by a mere 2-3 mill. Please. The following gen they did better and got crushed by Wii. Nextbox is going to be second place again right behind Wii U.
