imo thats a funny thing to say seeing as how major games and announcements are still coming to light for the 360 and ps3 daily ( just today god of war 4 and halo 4's release date have been revealed )
while all we have to go on for their successors are unsubstantiated rumours that vary in terms of their claims from day to day

Yeah because confirmed reports of dev kits from just about every major and minor 3rd party as well as job listings from many of them as well as MS are all "unsubstantiated rumors".
The market is in decline. PS360 peaked and will decline this year and following. Nintendo has already started the next gen and their competitors won't allow them too long of a head start as that has proven to be bad business in pretty much any market.

True. Well... Except in gaming ;D (think Sega)

It all the years of gaming, Nintendo (SNES and Wii) is the only one that was capable of launching a year or more after their competition and still have the greatest market share in the end. However, in both those cases (Genesis and 360) the one who launched first retained a solid marketshare and a significant increase over previous generation.
Facts are, its just the smart business move to be first or as close as possible to the first one out the gate. The more head start you give is heavily impacting to your end result.
