Sony thinks Wii, 360 succesors could make it out before next PS3

“Looking from the outside, it was Microsoft that released the first of this generation of consoles. Naturally, in my opinion, Microsoft will make the first move. Or, because Nintendo’s approach was not to upgrade much on its basic hardware – Wii doesn’t even support HD resolution – so they might be the first to move. Probably the watch should be on these companies, in my opinion.” – Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida

Nintendo has repeatedly said that HD alone won’t motivate the company to introduce a new console. There needs to be an innovative idea that can’t be realized on current hardware. And with the 3DS launching as late as next year, it wouldn’t surprise me if it takes Nintendo a long time to announce a Wii successor.
