Forums - Gaming Discussion - Who will win the next gen?

Nintendo should win the next generation based on momentum.

After that, it could be a different story...

Nintendo. Thanks to momentum.

After that it's anybody's game I guess. But it'll be cool if Nintondo was the first one to win 3 gens in a row.

You couldn't pick a more uncertain topic at most uncertain times.

Momentum can fade easily.

I believe it will be Nintendo, but anything can happen in these crazy 'ol wars.

Guess who... lol



Honestly, it's difficult to say. Nintendo has a commanding lead, but they could let that go to their head and forget what matters. It's happened before, and it could happen again.

On the other side of the coin, Sony has been thoroughly decimated this time out. There is no reasonable adjective but "failed" to describe what happened to them this gen. But they have wrested the industry from Nintendo in the past, partly by taking advantage of Nintendo's arrogance, and if they play their cards right, the setback that was the PS3 need not carry over into yet another generation.

And then there's Microsoft. I do not know what console of theirs will win its gen, if any, but I do know that there will be no successor to that console: once they've gotten a lock on the console industry, all of their effort will go toward moving people to PC gaming, thus giving the Windows monopoly another lock.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
