Usually when consoles have been around for a while speclation begins on when a new gen should take over,for me I think between 12 or 13.Also what do u think these consoles will have? I know NIntendo aims for it to be revoultionary not evolutionary.

this year according to pachter



Why did you leave out the possibility of 2010 or 2011? You may not think that's realistic, but that's up to the voter...



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

Thats just wha popped into myhead when i was doing it



2012, because it is such a lovely number, and feels good to see.



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

2011,Why isn't it up there



Tag:I'm not bias towards Nintendo. You just think that way (Admin note - it's "biased".  Not "bias")
(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

2012 I think.



When Some Sony PR says so.


This gen didn't start until the PS3 was out, according to Kutaragi.

Because next gen won't start in 2011.



I put 2012 because there was no option for "When Sony sayz so!"

Also, I think 2011 is within the realm of possibility as the 360 will be six years old by then. Of course, the best looking game on the 360 just released (IMO of course!) so they may really stick with the long cycle this time.
