The rise of digital will mean a lot more smaller games, so next gen will likely have more studios and way more people developing games for them. Unless they sell badly of course.
There will be less AAA+ developers tho, but there will likely still be more developers being employed to make the games as the trend has been to constantly increase the team sizes for the top games. Massive blockbusters today often have teams in the multiple hundreds, and I don't see that trend stoping any time soon.
