PS4
The PS4 has had clearly the best start and the best gaming powerhouse design of all three systems. Without much debate, the PS4 will probably outsell the WiiU and XB1 combined in the first 12-18 months. That is the real problem with the PS4. Past the intial rush of core gamers looking to upgrade their old PS3/360, the PS4 doesn't do much for the casual crowd. Also, the whizbang/shock of the graphics power(compared to the last Gen) will wear off quickly, as all 3 systems are truely underpowered at launch and will only get worse. The initial success(power/price) of the PS4 is it's actual long term failure. What does the PS4 have that people outside the core gaming community really want? Nothing YET... PS4 will sell 50-60 million MAX, probably closer to 50 million.

So 1 month into the next generation, you've already concluded tha Sony will never have any software on their system to appeal to anyone beyond "core gamers"?
I guess this is based on your knowledge that games such as Buzz and SingStar were obviously launch titles on the PS2...
I also think you're way off saying all the systems will fail. It's simply too early to predict what will happen with any of the systems right now. Even the Wii U can be turned around to sell a decent quantity of hardware.
That said I don't think there will be as many consoles sold this generation in total. But that'll be down to less double dipping on systems.

The market is going to shrink because of Nintendo. 70% of the people who played the Wii will not return unless Nintendo or someomne else comes up with a new fad.
