Actually the movie industry is pushing 4K and its not all Sony. Many movies today are downconverted/decompressed to 1080p as it is. There was a great article about this a few months ago in Sound and Vision magazine. Blu-ray will be the format for it so many changes won't be necessary for the consumer. I applaud Sony for being ahead of the game just like they were with Blu-ray.
Honestly, who wants another Wii that goes backwards in technology or another console that "is up to par" with what is out now? I have a 6 year old 46' Samsung 1080p HDTV that looks great but I wouldn't mind buying another Ultra High Def TV in a few years that can display 4 or 8K.
I went outside once, the graphics were great but the gameplay sucked!
