What new will Microsoft and Sony bring to the table?

Nothing. They'll release the same old systems, with the same old controllers. They don't even try to add anything new. They say their consoles aren't incremental upgrades but that's all they are. They just up the power and demand more money from the consumer every now and then, abandoning their old hardware and alienating everyone who bought it.
What Sony and Microsoft don't understand about system power is that the people who care about graphics and power are on PC. Why would they settle for second best? So yes, the 720 and PS4 will be stronger than the Wii U. Not something for Sony and Microsoft fans to rejoice about though. All it does is up the production costs for Sony and Microsoft, and ultimately make their consumers pay more money for an inferior product.
Not to mention, when the 720 and PS4 come out there will be a price cut on the already cheap as hell Wii U... Put two and two together guys. It's easy to see who has the upperhand in generation 8 already.

Some People love good graphics but can't afford a good PC that will last 2-3 years (+$1,000), so a they settle with a beef console that lasts 5+ years at 1/2 - 1/3 the price.
And since we don't know squat about the other next gen consoles, its pretty arrgoant to say they won't.

Common misconception. A good gaming PC doesn't cost that much.
And it's not "arrogance", it's based off of the history of the consoles. Look at the standard control mechanisms between the PS1, PS2, and PS3, and then between the XBOX and the 360. Their "consoles" are nothing more than incremental upgrades and actually end up costing far more than a gaming PC.
