Why PS4 won't be cutting edge, and neither will Xbox3 - or Why Nintendo might win next gen

With its Gakai purchase who says Sony needs a PS4? Just subscribe to PS+ and have next gen games streamed to your PS3/V. With both being cheap as all hell it would be very enticing. ~$200 dollar "next" gen consoles before 720 or Wii-U can even get a price drop in. Seeing how little Nintendo upped the game I really dont see Sony needing to drop another console to compete.

That could definitely work for America and Europe, but contrary to popular believe the internet it's not fast enough (for the normal consumer at least) in most countries to be able to do that, probably in a couple of years. So this could potentially hurt all of their consumers outside of America and Europe.

OT: I completely agree with you, but if the Vita is any indication I think Sony hasn't learned from their mistakes, they will try to go for the most powerful console, making it really expensive and just having a really small lost on HW. I could see Sony releasing the PS4 at $500 or even higher, call me crazy but I think that's going to happen.
