It seems everyone and their dog has an opinion on when we can expect new consoles. Well now it’s everyone and their dog, and GameStop CEO Paul Raines.
The Wii U, we expect it at holiday. This week, I’m getting a lot of rumours that are very interesting about 2013.
We have not been expecting two more consoles in 2013. We’re expecting Wii U this holiday, another one next year, and another one in ’14. These rumours change every week, but we’re hearing more about next year.
Given Sony’s ten year life cycle ambitions, 2014 is definitely not out of the question, although would they want to give Microsoft another head start?
Is it feasible the 360’s successor could actually launch last?

The next leap will be 3D and 4k screens. The PS4 will probably support 8k (knowing Sony). I genuinely believe we’ll all be sat here talking about the launch of both new machines in 12 months. Probably launch in Japan August then a UK/U.S launch for christmas.

Hopefully the next ones have a good showing and an actual lack of confusion unlike the other console that’s apparently releasing in 2012.
