That is true, but I don't know about that at the same time.  People pay for XBL because of the games it has on it.  And next generation if my predictions are right then XBL may be able to replace Cable boxes and if that is so then even non gamers will be signing up for XBL.  I don't think people realize what that means to have a multimedia service.  This will not just be a threat to PSN, but a threat to cable and satellite services.

This can happen things change constantly ever year especially with gaming IMO.
Xbox looks like it wants to control living rooms (which like you said can hurt other non gaming companies), Nintendo wants to be on par online in their on way which is a good thing and having miiverse the twitter of nintendo,( they also want multiplayer to be in a single household like n64 was wit multiplayer), and Sony with the hardcore which all should do fine as long as sony doesn't copy wii u.





Miiverse is a very intersting take of online.  I like it a lot.  it bypasses internet forums all together.  The only thing I don't like about Miiverse is nintendo themselves.  They will not make a lot of the games they have online.  Like New Super Mario Bros U.  They want it to stay a in the living room experience and I think that is a  bad idea.  Their is no reason to disable online multiplayer in my opinion.  I think it would be more fun to have splitscreen multiplayer in these type of games but still that isn't an excuse to disable it from online.

I wish i could disagree with you but your right. The only thing i believe is thats its early to tell maybe toward second half of next year all games will be better online. SSB4 is Ex of this. Besides for SSBB to be a slower more gravity feel like compared to SSBM the games online is what hurt it. This time around should be quite different.

I can't wait for SSB4 personally.  And yes just like MSFT and Sony they will improve online as it goes.
