unlikely that it will pass 100m. consoles are not going to continue having as long 'legs' as they did in the past. especially if Nintendo truly does release their next console within a few years, there is no way that its competitors will sit around for a particularly long time. when specs are the #1 selling point of your system (Microsoft or Sony) and you're constantly falling further and further behind PC its not going to leave room for particularly long system life cycles
I will note that the PS2 had a long life cycle due to the DVD player, and the PS3 arguably had a pretty long one due to the somewhat innovative Blu Ray player. you reach a point where systems no longer really have that added incentive to be used for extended years
