Wii U certainly shows how that *could* be true. Wii shows how it is also very false. The truth lies somewhere in between, but that's only because dedicated games hardware itself is under more threat than ever.

Sony and Microsoft's exit strategy is obviously to a services platform, but what road will Nintendo choose?


Exactly, then again with the strategy we've seen Nintendo doing with their hardware divisions  I can see a 9th generation Nintendo console, even like or better than the rumored one. I'm pretty sure Sony confirmed a PS5, but wasn't sure about the generation after that. and MS confirmed nothing. Wouldn't surprise me though if Nintendo is the only 10th generation hardware on the market and MS and PS offer their games as services through PC, set top boxes, and maybe even a 10th genration Nintendo box for a yearly fee. But we have about 20 years for that, and I'll be in my mid forties to see that. 

Who knows where the roads will take us.
