some thoughts regarding PS4:
Sony's 1st party games have no chance against Nintendo's. Fact. Therefore, Sony's 1st party games won't move as many systems as Nintendo's games will do, subsequently making that argument invalid.
It looks as if Wii U might get decent ports this gen, unlike Wii's gimped versions. Therefore; 3rd party launch line up games will be found on the Wii U as well. (Now, I'm no techie, so I don't know how all this will work out, or if WiiU actually will get decent graphics compared to PS720 - so we'll just have to see about that...)
People are already complaining about Wii U's price, so imagine all the bitching if PS4 is priced at $399!!
Nintendo's got Miiverse and Nintendo TVii to counter XBL and PSN Live...
Gaikai is the only thing of all those things you listed that could make a difference as I see it... PS4 won't have the same graphical leap they had last gen, they won't have that much better online services as last gen, they don't have as good (in this case meaning sell potential) 1st party games and decent to good 3rd party games will (hopefully) be found on Wii U as well - and Sony can't afford to sell at great loss. The only thing they got going to f*ck up Wii U's momentum is Gaikai and great marketing.
some thoughts about Xbox720:
Nintendo 1st party games > MS 1st party games. Fact. Therefore, MS's 1st party games won't move as many systems as Nintendo's games will do, subsequently making that argument invalid.
Halo 5 ain't happening in 2013. They got any other 1st party sellers?
CoD could - and will - move millions of systems. But will it move enough systems to topple Wii U's one year head start?! No.
New Ip's is something Nintendo has as well. NintendoLand. ZombiU.
MS can take a bigger loss than Sony and Nintendo, and could work great if the system can offer something the other 2 can't (superior graphics - like the leap from xbox to xbox360, or something else entirely)
All 3 consoles will have multiplayer. Wii U's got the Miiverse, which will be a whole new social experience that will enhance multiplayer - and something MS will have to match.
Getting a streaming service would/could work wonders for xbox720
Kinect has sold 20m units, but has rather poor software sales as far as I've understood it. So that's probably not a big selling point.
I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!
Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
