Do you see Microsoft ever winning a gen or do you think it'll just alternate between Nintendo and Sony?

No and no. This may be their last "console." 

personally I think it could potentially be the last console from all three of them, They cost too much investment wise to develop and market, return too little profit wise and the market is arguably shrinking. though if one was going to stop making consoles I would expect Sony to be the first to pull the ripcord.

Well, Sony is making money and Nintendo will once again, make a lot of money even if the Wii-U continues to sell at it's current pace. MS has a new boss, and the Xbox brand is pretty irrelevant now. Everything they've tried to do so far has been one fuck up after another. Kinect has been ditched as a vision, studios are closing etc. So I wouldn't be shocked if they called it quits in the console wars and left Sony and Nintendo to duke it out next gen.

Ugh i hope not, while i am a "sony pony" i eventually end up with all consoles, i like variety, but i firmly reconise the ps4 is awesome because the x360 pushed it to be.
