    The 360 is out a while whens Microsofts next one out?
    The DS is out a while come on Nintendo!
    Same goes for the PSP.. so many new ones but same thing essentially.

    I cant wait for a handheld with two joypads to make games easier. Should be like a normal controller.

    No one knows yet but for the main consoles it should be a while before the next models are out. A new DS is coming out later this year called the 3DS which gives a 3d effect whilst playing. A new PSP may be announced on tuesday when sony have their E3 conference

    No one knows when the next completely new consoles are out, not just slimmed down or upgraded versions of current gen consoles.

    3DS will be announced this week. Possibly PSP2 and Wii HiFi ( HD Wii basically) as well. Don't expect the next gen of consoles to start for another 2 years. We 'might' get a teaser from one of the big three at E3 2011 but I doubt it.

    I think sony, ms or trying to get us to adopt natal, sony move, for the next 2 years ,its not like the graphics on the present console are lacking and the world economy is in recession.I Think the 360 has 3 years life left in it .
    the ipad is the hot product in terms of mobile gaming.Apple shows make it easy to install apps and people will buy em.Have billing, software ,updates, apps built in to the os.
    i think it would be possible for sony to build an ipad clone that runs ps2 software ,if they want to ,ie ps2 digital downloads to a handheld device.
    Note if company x is bringing out a handheld console ,put in 2 small analog sticks on it.
    pdbhp ,you could buy a cheap pc monitor 19inch for playing xbox games ,and a vga xbox cable. there should a usb interface on all future handhelds so you can buy a mini controller with 2 analog sticks ,if you want one.
