I agree with you kn, however Nintendo usually makes a console that runs at least one generation behind in raw horsepower(no offense).

Although you have to wonder how bad it would be to have Nintendo release a console as powerful as a PS3...

When you say, usually, do you mean 50% of the time, because of the 4 consoles (besides Wii) that they've made, 2 of them were more powerful than the winning console. And surprise, the winning consoles those two times were the PlayStation 1 and PlayStation 2. It seems Sony's actually the one that releases a "last-gen"  less-powerful console.

Nintendo just has to play it safe. I bet Sony's take over of the market with the PS1 still stings Nintendo... and I'm sure both companies won't forget the massive swing from this generation. But Nintendo is in a really good spot right now.
