The problem being that Sony might doing something similar and are keeping quiet about this as well.

This has just become THE QUESTION everybody will be asking until E3.

And not very surprising. There is another reason why this gen lasted so long, because it needed to be longer in order to make a profit off those hardware losses. MS made it's 360 profitable like when? 2011-2012? As for Sony well...yeah. Only the Wii made insane profits from the get-go.

Normally, we'd have started an entirely new gen by now.  What Sony and MS are aiming to do is make a profit as quickly as possible, coming off from last gen. Easiest 1st target is used games. Publishers agree with this too as long as they get a cut. Else we're going to be seeing a long gen again.

 

Which makes me wonder the hell Nintendo's expecting out the industry in the upcoming years.
