Patch is a scuzzball but anyone that doesn't see that consoles will go away in the developed world in the next 10 years is either blind or unaware of technology trends.

In a world of integrated ecosystems, the extra box for console gaming just won't be necessary. Consoles are just dead weight that cost the user to purchase and make little to no money for the manufacturer. It may not be smartphones but as soon as there is a viable method to bypass the console and offer AAA gaming experience without one, consoles are done. Be it smartphones, tablets, TVs that offer streaming or whatever...

We will always have retro consoles made by Retron though, that run SNES, NES, and Gensis games.
