I know we don't have much info about the next gen consoles.

This is more about what console you're inclined to get based on your experience with the current gen and your expectations (current dissatisfactions, first party studios, business models, online...).

 

Are inclined to you stick to Nintendo/XB/PS?

Are you considering switching sides? (if you don't buy all consoles, that is).

 

Update:

So far:

70% are likely to stick to what they have.

11% are considering moving to PS (mostly Xbox owners).
4% are considering moving to Xbox (mostly PS owners).
1% are considering going from HD to Nintendo.

Xbox fans are the least loyal/satisfied (over half considering moving!).
PS fans are the most loyal/satisfied, not too far ahead of Nintendo fans.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

No owning a Sony/Nintendo console, worked very well for me this gen, Microsoft doesn't seem care about gamers, so I won't switch.

Sony/Nintendo combo to the end. Microsoft doesn't have the type of games i like.

i'm probably gonna get wii u first then playstation or xbox depending on which is better later after that battle plays itself out. I got a wii then a ps3 after this get gen. So it seems likely that will happen again, 360 and PS3 were too similar to buy both.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

I don't have a side really. I go where the games are. Though I guess I am currently on the Sony side since I use the PS3 99% of gaming time and I am more interested in the PS4 than the Wii U and Next Xbox

I don't like shooters, or games with overreliance in presentation or storyline. That pretty much seals the deal.

I tried, ended up with a bunch of burnt out Xbox's but if need be and Sony was no more id go back if the new console of the time is good.

PS1-PS2-PS360-PS4

I will probably dabble in PC gaming, but I still just prefer the experience of playing on the PS3, so I will keep that going with the PS4

I don't think I will be getting a 720, M$ seems to be heading away from "proper gaming" but I guess we will see what their new unknown studios are working on, I certainly won't be buying it at launch, they won't have a Naughty Dog game

Sony/Nintendo for me.
