So PS4 Is Basically Going To Win This Gen, Right?

Soundwave you make a lot of baseless claims: what are the proofs exactly that games like Wii Sports or Wii Fit won't sell well? What are the proof that casual gamers won't buy any new consoles when the right games will be released? I don't see any. It's like people assuming handhelds and 3DS especially were dead because of smartphones and that didn't happen. Now games like AC or Tomodatchi for example even sell really well to the casual gamers that the same people assumed will never buy such a device anymore. And in fact smartphones and tablets were competing much more directly with handhelds that they are with consoles. If you want to play Wii Fit or Wii sports you certainly can't do that on such devices. So there is really nothing to back up your assertions.

I still think WiiU will dominate next gen: Nintendo has sold 100 millions consoles with very little support for hardcore games from third parties and there is no reason for this to happen agian this time. Even if WS and WF don't sell as well as the previous iterrations of these series this is a huge difference. The WiiU line up this fall is also by far the best one of all three console and 2014 is also at least as impressive.

If I would be into those long term, gen spanning bets, I would love to make a bet with you that Nintendo won't dominate anything in the home console market this generation. And seriously, believing it after it's first 9 months already, when it's the slowest selling home console post launch since I don't know Dreamcast or earlier. Wow.
