Something new?  Like PSASBR or Mod Nation Racers?  Sorry, but I had to go there because there is a point.  Mario Kart and Smash Bros. obviously are a very big deal to gamers or Sony wouldn't have tried to make their own version of them.  Sony fans and the gaming media got very excited about new IPs that resemble what Nintendo has done, didn't they?  Do I have to bring up Little Big Planet?

I understand that with new games come hype, but that does not mean that they make as much money as the established franchises.  Do you expect a brand new Sony IP to be as hyped as the sure to be upcoming Uncharted or Grand Theft Auto for that matter?  I don't.  Is a new IP going to outsell Call Of Duty?  No, it isn't.  I understand that many core gamers go crazy over a new IP, but the established franchises are the ones that get the most sales.  Why?  Because the established franchises like Zelda are what excites the gamer.  The gaming media is what gets excited for new IPs.  And as I said above, sometimes new IPs try to be like old IPs. 

I'm not disagreeing with this, but I'm pretty sure that they'll hype up the latest Uncharted (if one is coming out) more than their new stuff.  MS does this with Halo and Nintendo also does this with Mario.  The big three know where their bread is buttered.

Yes, MS and Nintendo better watch. Sony the Big Boss is coming with PS4 and they won't stand a chance.

You can fool yourself with your never-ending love for Sony, Turkish, but don't try to fool us.
If PS4 really is about to be shown, then yeah, the hype is going to be through the roof. But by the end of the month all would have quieted down.

MS will be prepared to stand up against PS4 and Wii U come this E3. They know their competition is going to come out swinging.

As for Nintendo, with Smash Bros, Mario Kart, 3D Mario, X, Retro's game and more to show this E3, they're going to be fine at E3.

I'm expecting a really good showing from all 3. No-one will lose and we gamers will win because this E3 is going to be AWESOME!!!

Yes, the announcement of a new XBox would be massive.  

Also, to answer the original post about how Nintendo and Microsoft should be afraid, I simply don't think that's true.  All three need to worry about themselves at this stage in the game.  Nintendo needs to mend some recent problems, Microsoft needs to grow once more this generation like they did last, and Sony needs to try to reestablish the image that they had with the PS and PS2. 

Turkish (♥) PS4!

Yeah I can totally see PS4 being bad news for the Wii U like the Vita was to the 3DS! :P

For Wii U, there possibly can be a problem. Feb 20th unveiling can bring in the favors. Much will be based on the nature of content, games and hardware unveiling. Well for Nextbox the only way in which one can account for is about the hardware strength. Much hype has been revolving around better configuration among the two as rumors. I simply at this point refuse to accept that factor going against the Nextbox. The announcement/launch news would be as big as PS4's , if not better. MS could use  "PS: see the Future"as a reference point to study their competitor's pros and cons.

Difference being that the Wii U isn't really burning the shelves right now...

Also, as the PS2 has eloquently illustrated, just because you were sales king during a gen doesn't guaranty that you'll remain king the gen after.

Wii U may end up selling like the Cube in comparison to its competitors. 

Not saying it will, but at this point in time, and considering the shaky state of the industry right now, everything is in the air.

There is only one winner and that is Turkish. He opened this tread and hide in a corner to enjoy the flame war among gamers. He is the winner.

Back to OP, I am really expecting to see what Sony will unvail for PS4. I will buy PS4 and nextXBOX definately. I already had my Wii U since day 1. The next (current?) generation will be my last generation. After it finishs, I think I will be 40 year old.

Yeah I can totally see PS4 being bad news for the Wii U like the Vita was to the 3DS! :P
