Prediction: the next-gen of consoles would be ridiculously staggered!

Your reasonings are poor, especially for the Wii and the PS3. The only future proof system right now is the Wii. Why? Count the hardware revisions of the current gen systems.

In 2012 512 MB memory will be nothing and blu-ray will outsell dvd.

Not true and not true.

 

If blu-ray players and discs are affordable, I don't see why it wouldn't happen. It's only logical that the price will come down with time.

For the next generation of consoles, Microsoft is rumored to release theirs before the competition again in 2011. From what I hear they will use digital distribution as their main medium.

Supposedly the PS3 is somewhat future-proof because "the true power of the cell" is yet to be tapped, and Sony will delay the launch of the PS4 until 2013 where it will have noticeable technical edge over the 360. 3rd parties will still develop exclusives for it because the technical edge by itself will give it an identity separate from the 360 unlike this generation.

Both consoles will have me too wii-motes with their own tweaks and Nintendo will probably boost their console's power so that it's equal in power to the HD consoles of this generation. They will simply refine their motion controller and add a legitimate network.
