I don't really see it. I think at this rate, Nintendo is going to be forutnate to put up N64 numbers in a 5 year span.
No offence to Nintendo themselves, but I don't think anyone is paying a lot of money for a console that's primarily backed by one company that can deliver maybe 4-6 major games a year (and that's in a good year, the Wii's later years are examples of not-so-good years).
Sony/MS/EA/Capcom etc. would all be in trouble trying to sell more than 30 million consoles with the type of third party support Nintendo is getting.
I think the console business is in for a retraction too, I think it's going to shrink back down the PS2/GCN/XBox era levels.
