Just thinking, will there be a Nintendo monopoly again like it did in NES?

Sony and MS will continue making gaming systems, and I wouldn't be shocked to see Apple joining the industry soon. As much as I dislike Sony's business practices (aka lying, deceiving customers), they will be around in the industry for a long time yet. So, no, I don't forsee Nintendo being a monopoly again. I DO see them returning to the popularity level they had pre- PS 1 tho.

I am still shocked that this thing is still believed. The Gaming Industry doesn't fit to Apple and vice verca. Apple is a company making luxary design and lifestyle "computing" products. You can do that with telephones, televisions, computers, laptops, MP3players, watches and a lot of other things. It doesn't work that well in the gaming industry. Yes it is really that simple.

 

This was also the thought before MS came to the industry. MS was about productivity software and OSes, not gaming. Then they decided to branch out into it. Why wouldn't Apple desire to enter the largest industry out there? If you think about it, the Game Cube ran on a PowerPC, so technically Apple has had their hand involved in at least a small part of the industry so far. I think with the way they are expanding, it would only seem logical.
