Why is there an ongoing assumption that the ps4 / 720 is going to come in and dominate? Sony is on the verge on bankruptcy, they literally had to sell their buildings in NYC & Japan, just to be able to survive. And microsoft has consistently played "me-too", & basically never originated anything new or substantial on their own (kinect wasn't even developed internally at microsoft). So basically- somehow Sony & Microsoft will unveil these incredibly powerful consoles which will be super affordable & go on to sell a combined total of 170million units? You've got to be freakin' kidding me. More likely they will release consoles which are watered-down PCs, but too expensive for the mass market, & both will sell miserably (worse than the wii u). The economy is currently much weaker than in 2005/06 during the start of the last generation, a $400-500 console will basically be dead-on-arrival. Look at the Vita & compare it to the PSP, it's doing absolutely horribly. By the time the ps4 / 720 are released, the wii u will look very affordable & have a decent line-up of software. They will snatch up the majority of families / casuals / female players / & any respectable "hardcore" player will own a wii u to play Nintendo 1st party software. The 720 / ps4 will basically fight once again for the FPS junkies / graphics whores (although most will switch to PC at a certain point). Nintendo will inevitably come out on top once again, & all the very loud Nintendo-haters on the internet will be scratching their heads wondering how they could be so wrong. As further proof of this theory, compare the 3ds sales to the Vita.
