one think is what is possible to do, and other is what they would do.
here in brazil, there is no need for 4k displays, not even 1080p.Now the TVs are starting to show HD images, only netflix uses 1080p.
If 4k TVs wont be popularized in the next gen times, they wont deliver 4k on consoles. But it that happens, there will be no need for a generation leap.
So i im starting to agreeing with DerpSandwich, and also JustBeingReal. This gen will last until 2022+, and the jump will be massive due the new technologies.Nintendo would release a console at 17/18, but will be powered near to ps4 power.

I never said this generation would last until 2022, it won't because there won't be a need for that to happen, AMD's Zen CPU core tech comes in early 2016, along with a new smaller mobile core, they're stacking High Bandwidth Memory on their R9 390X GPU's die in 2015 and Crossbar can go into production with their RRAM tech in late 2015.

3 years from now this technology will have evolved, making vast improvements and actually become very mature.

Nintendo can very well be the first platform holder to use it in 2018, with it being cost effective and their system would be much more powerful than PS4.

good to hear that!
