It's hardly "random guessing". It's the next logical step after what has happened this generation, if things go as they logically appear that they will.
Any sort of predictions about something like that will, naturally, not have much evidence behind them to say that they certainly will go that way. I mean, this is a bunch of companies we're talking about, and I'm not directly involved with any of them. Of course I couldn't know exactly what will end up happening.
However, the point of the second part was to make a logical prediction about what will happen in the future, following what I anticipate will happen for the remainder of this generation, and following precedents set in the previous six generations. Precedence has shown that we can logically expect everything I stated there to come true. Of course, precedence doesn't always stand for true, so we can't be certain at all.
And just to point this out - the reason I expect a new competitor to arise is because there has been NOBODY new in six and a half years, and by the dawn of the eighth generation, it will have been ten years. I think 2012-2013 will be a very good time for a new competitor to come out, and I think Phillips will have the money and the know-how to do it. Not to mention creating a competitor to Nintendo is stinkin' common sense. You can count on somebody coming out next generation as a casuals-only competitor to Nintendo, and they will definitely do well for themselves.
