Do you find it strange that Wii U will release before we've even seen PS4/720?

If I ran MS or Sony I'd reveal my next gen console around the time the WiiU launches - or at least hint something - to steal some of the thunder and make people think twice before getting the WiiU...

I guess they are trying a different approach. By letting their old consoles compete with the Wii U (and with seemingly similar graphics capabilities) they try to make it appear as if the Wii U has no thunder. And as we can see Sony is trying extra hard with this PS3/Vita combo.

A more important factor is though that their current consoles bring profits that they don't want to cut through a premature next-gen announcement. Again, that especially goes for Sony.

I think the part in bold is correct. They just see WiiU as the same power as PS3 and 360. When they announce PS4 and 720, they will do so in a way that makes Wii U irrelevant.
