I have a brother that’s into PC gaming. He thinks it’s all that and now he despises anything Nintendo. In fact, he kept complaining with Skyward Sword’s motion controls because he didn’t have the patience to use the Wii Remote Plus for motion control. Guess what happened to all of his money after just two years of PC gaming?

Down the freakin’ drain. He has spent over $10,000 in buying a computer, headset, keyboard, mouse, and all of the DLC associated with the games he bought on his PC. The funny part? Most of the games he bought sucks and all I hear from my bedroom is him complaining of TeamSpeak of how much these games suck for the most retarded reasons ever (such as a character being slightly overpowered in Dragon Age II or Diablo 3, the position of an item on the map isn’t EXACTLY in the correct position in the game world, etc.). Yeah, he has no life.

What’s funny is he hates Nintendo in every way possible, but he totally loves PC gaming and everything that Microsoft and Sony does with their consoles. He even just bought the Vita–a system that’s gonna be the next Dreamcast of portable systems in general and may be the first nail in the coffin for Sony (the final one may be their next gen console if it ends up being as expensive as the PS3 was when it first came out). People don’t like to admit it, but Sony ain’t in any “good” condition at all. Their stocks are even lower than Nintendo’s (a company that relies on their console sales solely) and they have multiple divisions for their TVs, gaming consoles, monitors, etc.

I’d be surprised if the Vita lasts another year–and I would be really surprised if Sony doesn’t implode within the next five years.

All I’m gonna say is this: Don’t focus on this generation when comparing game systems to the Wii U. After a couple more years, Microsoft and Sony are releasing their own consoles. You can compare the Wii U to them if you really want to afterwards. For me, I don’t give a crap about that type of stuff usually, but here’s the most realistic situation that is possible for the next generation of game consoles:

– Wii U: $199.99 to $299.99
—– Based on how much it is to manufacture the components of the Wii U console packages, it may not be too crazy to think of the price as being $199.99 for its most basic set by the time that the new consoles from Microsoft and Sony come out. This would allow Nintendo to drive their sales further than ever before with a price that the other two companies just can’t beat. Based on how the Nintendo Network Premium deal is turning out, I won’t be surprised if Nintendo will have this turn out to be something like Playstation Plus where members of the service pay to keep it passed the expiration date of the deal.
– Xbox 720: $399.99 to $499.99
—– If it has all of the rumored Kinect crap with the console, expect there to be two or three different models–one model will be the console with Kinect (not much built in memory), another model would have no Kinect (same built in memory, making it the cheapest one to get), and the third model would have the greatest amount of memory.
– Playstation 4: $499.99 – $799.99
—– This price depends on what Sony decides to use as their primary format. If the next Playstation is 4K compatible, then we are definitely seeing a system very high in price for the next generation of consoles. However, Sony has stated they won’t make the same mistake twice, so they may not go with 4K due to how much a feature such as that could markup the console’s price.

Here’s the problem–if Microsoft and/or Sony announce that their next-gen consoles are all digital-only, you can bet that there is gonna be a severe backlash from the gaming community and retailers as a whole. In fact, such a move may even urge retailers not to sell those consoles (I don’t see why they would if they don’t get feel like they can get any profit out of doing so, such as GameStop with their used sales). Like it or not, this gaming industry is NOT ready for an all digital gaming experience yet, and if both Microsoft and Sony cannot see it that way for the next-gen, then they are in for a world of butthurt after they announce their next gen consoles.
