This is the thing i hate about consoles. In five years there will be a slim model and after that super-slim. And I hope there will be no HDMI successors anytime soon, although Samsung , Sony and LG did announce the HDBaseT back in 2011. But that will probably be on 4k TV's .

They have already been working on a replacement.  HDMI 1.x is pretty much out of expansion abilty.  The early protoypes would use things like Cat-5 cables - which would be awesome!  They are inexpensive and you can get them in really long lengths.  But that one doesn't seem to be taking off.

Then Apple and Intel got involved and want it to be the display port.  But the Motion Picture liked HDMI for it's strong DRM.

They are also working on an HDMI 2 format supposed to be out in September of this year and do 4K at 60P and 1080P 3D at 120P (so each eye can see a full 1080P/60 image.)

But it will work with these consoles, I mean will it have the same plug?
