I owe my little brother a new gaming console, because I am taking our wii with me to college, but I don’t want to get him one that is going to be old news soon.
Are there any speculated release dates for any 8th gen consoles?
He wants a PS3, so I think I’ll get him that (and just take all the wii games with me, ha ha)
But, you don’t think these are gonna be old news? I just want him to have the latest, greatest.
If you want a system that’s going to be around for several more years, your best bet would be a PS3. The next Xbox will probably come out in 2011. Nov. 22, 2010 would be the first anniversary of the 360, and most consoles have about a 5 year lifespan. The Wii will probably come out in 2011 because the Wii is archaic when compared to the PS3 and 360. Sony have said that 2012 would be the earliest that the PS4 will come out, but I think it’s going to be at least 2013 before we see the PS4.
At the CES (Consumer Electronics Show), none of them have said anything about their next system. Maybe one or more of them will have something to say at E3.
As the consoles Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii were only released in the last 3-4 years then it is not expected for the next generation to be released until about 2014 or so. I would suggest just getting him another Wii as there wont be anymore console releases for a while now.
The PS4 Is in the making now, Also Xbox 720 it seems is in the making also. I don’t believe wii has a new system yet. But it most definitely has ideas on a drawing board.
The next playstation is according to sony not going to come out sooner than 2010. That came out in 2006 and there is no article saying anything new is going to come out. Also because the consoles are no much stronger and faster than the ps2, or xbox they will take longer to top.
Id say buy him a new wii or ps3.
