Considering that no console had even come close to selling 100 million units before playstation I don't really see that as a problem... Wii, PS3 and xbox has sold close to 240 million units together. The generation before that sold close to 200 million. So I don't think the drop from gen 7 to gen 8 to be more than 25million consoles, that would mean that if PS4 and xbox720 both sold 50million each Wii U would sell 120m...

yep well it's hard to predict with all the new techs eating into consoles market not that i am such a big believer in that as i think online/internet/social interaction can help consoles be very popular,nintendo will be fine whatever happens,i have a feeling microsoft will be leading becasue of their power in the american market which might effect nintendo this time round,looks bad for sony either way,i think everyone needs to be successful in some kind of paid sub in the future

haha yes, it sure is hard making predictions when we don't even know how ps4 and x3ox will be like!! Right now I'm just going by rumors and current events (like sony's poor financial situation). I don't believe that CORE gaming will be effected by tablets and smart phones. It might even expand the market. Say you pick up a smart phone at the age of 10 and play angry birds and whatnot... In 5 years time you might have evolved into a core gamer, right? ^^

I also think that Microsoft might take the lead. I actually think they might be in a better position selling 120m console than Nintendo. All I know is that PS4 probably won't reach those kind of numbers...
