Ok pThug,
Let's see...
1) EA, Gamestop, and other company management have already said rest of next-gen is coming in 2013. (or "expecting")
2) There are already a hand-full of games that are clearly next-gen with no consoles linked.
3) There are a bunch of PS4 related Linkedin profiles for next-gen games.
4) PS3 is on a double digit YoY decline and that won't change from the holidays.(even when the price cut gets announced before Wii U launches)
5) Sony blatantly stated they won't give MS a head start this time and I doubt anyone can seriously argue the neXtBox isn't coming when you consider the same 1-4 above for it as well as proven official Xbox timeline that showed it will release by next holiday. (wish that had leaked prior to my sig bet with Jay)
It makes zero sense, competitively, for it to NOT launch by 2013 in Japan (Wii U is set to do very well there) and NA (to match neXtBox).
