It is really too early to tell, while we know the most about what Nintendo is doing and even then our information is fairly vague and incomplete ...

What I wonder with Sony and Microsoft is whether Move and Kinect represent a major shift in strategy or if they're simply there to try to catch onto the motion control craze. Either way, there are a lot of potential land-mines that Sony and Microsoft have to navigate before they can release a successful system.

I think children rule the game world.

I think kids buy the most toys and games where most adults continue onto adulthood.

Therefore, I believe Nintendo will once again win the generation.

QUESTION!!!

Is the WiiU considered the first console into the next gen?

If so, gives them a big head start as well.

Like some others have said its WAY too early to tell considering MS and Sony have unveiled litteraly ZERO of what their new consoles will be like and even Nintendo barely showed us anything.

In other words there is no way of knowing cause we don't know what the competition will bring to each other and where the game software is going to go.

That being said I do think Sony and MS are currently in a better position than Nintendo and I personally don't see Wii U being near the seller that Wii was. I think it will be successful and profitable but not like Wii has been.

But I could be horribly wrong and thats part of the fun of predicing this far out of launch

The winner will easily be Rovio's "Angry Birds Box". Have you seen the games on that system so far?! Super Angry Birds, Angry Birds Kart, Super Smash Birds and Pokebirds: Man, those games easily look 50% better than anything the Xbox1080 and PS4 have shown us...

Why am I under the impression that you made this thread solely so you can promote your "beautiful friend?" That being said though, I will say the xbox 3 because it is its turn to win.


We've been baited by a spam bot!

PS.  You should give yourself an avatar, homer.  The default avatar just looks so bland.  Perhaps use a pic of Homer Simpson?

Same goes to every single person in this thread above me.....  Personalize your profile a little!  Takes like 3 seconds to upload an image for your avatar.


I no nose how. :(

Do I have to download a picture from the internet?

Once you are logged in you see the Home, Profile, Members, Forums buttons near the top.  Hover the mouse over the Home button and then select profile settings.  Profile Picture is in the profile settings.

or

Scroll your mouse to the your user info at the top right of VgChartz once you are logged on (same location where you log on).  After you are logged on by hovering the mouse in that area you will see it drop down (my profile, my games, etc..) there you will find Settings in the bottom right.  Click on settings then it will bring you to your profile.  It will be on the preferences tab (highlighted green).  Click on the profile pic tab that is next to the preferences tab then you can upload your profile pic there.



There is no doubt that Sony will win the handheld and home console battles next gen.

*waiting for friend requests*



In home consoles i predict Nintendo, just because the casual crowd, Nintendo has the best casual games (yes Wii had a bunch of casual trash but the majority of that games weren't from Nintendo), and with HD graphics will bring the old fans back (at least the ones that ran off). The hardcore crowd will still go to Microsoft or Sony but they have to split that market between them like is happening with the actual console wars so they will sell less.

In the portables is more dificult because Sony looks like is going to try win the war even if it means to lose money. So this time around it's gonna be close. But once again Nintendo has the better games so probably will win...



My money is on xbox 3
