Price cuts, new features, and big games. Same as usual.

Super slim!

Looking at the whole situation between 3DS and Vita and Sonys strategy that kicked SEGA to the curb and fucked the original Xbox over..... Nintendoes what Sony did.

There is no way we'll see a Wii price drop this year. Nintendo won't do anything to make their current console more appealing, and potentially take any focus off of Wii U. Wii should drop to $99 next holiday season, but this year is all about their new system.

Sony has their Super Slim launch + price drop, and Microsoft has Halo 4 (plus a much needed price drop). They will both do well this holiday season. And I predict much better sales than last year on the Playstation side.

If Nintendo launches Wii U at $299 or less, it will lead HD console sales until at least the launch of competing next-gen systems.

I think they will not respond this year, it does not makes sense. Nintendo will sell every console it puts on the market this holiday season and will most likely have a limited stock to begin with so there is no point on responding to a thing that will happen anyway.

I think their response will come on may (or june) of next year, just around the announcement of their new consoles, that will hurt Nintendo the most and benefit Sony and Microsoft also.

While I could be wrong, I would actually expect the PS3 and XBox 360 to remain (mostly) as they are for the rest of 2012 and to see price reductions early in 2013; and I would expect those price reduction announcements to come at the same event that they announce the 'XBox 720' and PS4 at.

They will reveal a controller with a touchscreen in the middle. Imagine it looks like a hybrid between an iPad and a conventional controller.

they've been working on it since the last supper of Jesus Christ.

You guys gonna flip over.

I think they will troll it.

Like this is no new gen anyway. Or Nintendo was never our main competiton. Or we are impressed by their performance.
