Will the Wii U extend the life of the PS3 and XBox 360?

[Flanneryaug]

If the Wii U does well this fall when all of the big games come out, it could extend the life of the Xbox 360 and PS3 by a little bit, but not much. What will extend the life of the Xbox 360 and PS3 will be the large user base, and poor Nextbox and PS4 launch sales. So far every 8th generation console has struggled at launch, I doubt that the Nextbox or PS4 will be an exception.
