Consoles are not going anywhere as long as they are as nicely designed as the PS4 :)

nah, they will go away once worldwide broadband connections get up to snuff.  

People these days are polarized to the point where they think it's always all or nothing. Remember the "post PC" era? Well, here we are, years later, and people still buy laptops by the millions. 

Consoles will be around in different forms for as long as people still have large TV's in their living room. The AMOUNT of them will probably shrink but they will always be there.
