So here are my predictions New console will not start at more then $499 New console will be using Blu Ray or HD DVD disks Wireless remotes standard Wifi standard ... basically a simple upgrade to all 3 consoles, better speed, more ram, bigger harddrive. Overall no ground breaking technologies, and Nintendo falls back to 3rd place (I don't think Nintendo can repeat what it did with the Wii with its next console) |
Yea, this is what I see too. But the problem is that’s not enough. Never has a console come out where the improvements were “slightly better”.
In the PC world, you can release a $500 video card that’s only 50%, or even 20%, better then the last one, and it will sell. But that’s a different market then the console world.
I don’t see a system that does not blow the last generation away selling for $500, and I don’t see what can be done to make that system. Maybe a Cable Modem/router/Audio Receiver built in or something.
