THis gen I had a DS, PSP, PS3, Wii, 360, and PC. Next gen I'm still going to have the PC and I'm going to go the handhled route with the 3DS and Vita. I will probably cave and get a PS4 two or three years after its release. Is anyone else dropping systems from their line up this next gen?

I'll get a WiiU at some point. As for the rest, we'll see where I'm standing in terms of money and living condition in 3 years. Still have a few more years of Uni before I can spend money for no reason.

I currently own a 3DS and will own a Wii U in the next several months. That of course depends on the Wii U's price.

I'm going back to PC after a 6-year hiatis due to my finacial situation in college. I'm going to build a top-of the line rig to last me a while (GTX 690) I'll probably end up splurging on the Wii U and Nextbox if they both don't suck, and I might even buy a PS4 if there are any games that actually interest me (Unlike PS3)

I've got a PS3 and 360 this gen. It will be the first and last gen that I own two consoles. I mainly game on my 360 but if the PS4 gets all the ease of use stuff that I love about the 360 (custom soundtracks, being able to do other stuff while music is playing, etc) then I'll buy a PS4. If the 720 adds all the media support of the PS3 and XBL Gold starts giving away full retail and PSN games like PS+ or stops charging for multiplayer, I'll go with the 720. Games probably won't be a deciding factor for me as every exclusive company I enjoyed kinda fell off this gen or went multiplat.

I know that more than likely, I'll be more pc centric. Other than that, "dropping" anything isn't certain.

Not a clue. Went SNES -> N64 -> PS2 -> 360 as my main gaming consoles. So no fvckheaded brand loyalty here. Whichever console has the best games, and hopefully most powerful, best graphics and online too.

This gen I've had 360 (sold), PS3, DS and PC.

I'll definitely be getting the Wii U, it's just a matter of when and I've already purchased the 3DS. No real interest in the Vita right now and no details have released on the next Xbox and Playstation successors so I guess N/A on those two.

Nothing is really known about next gen yet, so there is no way I can make an informed decision now. It all depends on the games that are available, the system features, and the price. The only thing I know right now is that I will be moving back towards PC gaming unless something good happens with the consoles. Right now the best games are multi-platform, and almost all of those are available on the PC, and they are usually cheaper.

This gen I had Wii, PS3, PSP, DS and a lower end PC for MMO/TBSfor most of the gen, with a 360 early, and higher end PC late.

Next gen I'm keeping PC, choosing just one console, and ditching handhelds completely.

I'll continue to primarily be a PC gamer and will buy a PS4 a year or so after release so it has time to build up an exclusive library.

I just get whatever I feel has the best games and services.

That most likely won't be the 720.

Things might change next generation. If there's one thing very true about the videogame industry, it's that when we have no idea what is going to happen.

I am already 95% PC but I plan on sticking with Sony of course but I'm waiting a few years after release for a PS4. Perfectly content with PS2/3

and lolsoft doesn't get any money from me. Except for buying a copy of Windows.

The same for me. PC then WiiU. Those two are definites.

Optional: Depending how the games are, I might add a new MS console first before a PS4 because I'll be playing the PS3 backlog first.

Edit: If Sony follows the same trend with its exclusives this gen, I can delay the PS4 purchase.

Wiiu for sure. Sony and MS will have to earn my money. I'm not too happy where they want the industry to head. Though something tells me Naughty Dog will make me fork out money for the next Playstaion. Uncharted 4 at launch. That is a system seller right there.

Agreed 100%.

Well, Wii U does interest me to an extent, but not enough to warrant a launch purchase. I'll likely get it when it drops in price and have a big backlog of Nintendo games to play.

I am seriously considering dropping consoles for good. After the Wii and now the Wii U, Nintendo is dead to me. I never liked microsoft, so that only leaves the PS4. I will get it if Sony doesn't try to fight used game sells with things like online pass. If Sony tries to stop used games sells, then I will not buy a PS4 and will be a PC/mobile gamer.

But there is no used games on pc, and Valve only wants more and more control. I find it ironic that you immediately dismiss the wiiu, yet it is the only console that will likely stick to the full product retail release business model.

When I can get console games for dirt cheap like I can PC games, then I will let Sony slide on fighting used games. Sure I can't get used games for PC, but who gives a sh!t when you can get your PC games for way cheaper than you can get used console games. I don't like the Wii U for a few reasons. 1. Tablet sucks and I have no interest in it. 2. Nintendo's first party games suck. 3. I consider it Nintendo finally entering current gen, not next gen. 4. Nintendo's online sucks ass. 5. It's third party supports seems to mainly consist of nothing more than multiplats I can already get on my PC and/or PS3. 6. Tablet controller is going to be expensive to replace.

1. You have not used the tablet. Let's not jump to conclusions. 2. Nintendos first party produces some of the most critically, and fellow developer, acclaimed games. 3. They are entering current gen, yet are offering the potential for completely new game design? 4. Nintendos online does indeed doe what you say it does. However, I expect online function to,be stressed along the lines of the original Xbox, which IMO is all you need. 360 is a pos and took things too far. 5. Third party support will be determined by installed base. You read negative comments about wiiu because a lot of devs don't want the console to succeed because it will not support dlc like 360/ps3 6. Let's take a wait and see here. Controller markups are incredibly high at the moment. A dualshock or 360 pad should cost no more than $25. The wiiu pad is probably made in china, and uses a budget touch screen. There are full fledged tegra tablets made in china that retail for around $100.

This guy speaks the truth. I'm continuing my tradition of owning a Nintendo handheld and two consoles from Nintendo and Sony. Staying away from Microsoft as usual :)

Not sure, to be honest.

I'm currently a PS3/360 gamer this gen. So it depends on what both their new systems are offering. I'll stick to my current systems for the entire remainder of this generation until support completely runs dry.

I have absolute Zer0 interest in ANY Nintendo consoles.

Nope not me, been a PS3 gamer this gen, and have no regrets whatsoever, so I'll continue with the PS platform.

More like adding a new system to my fold......WiiU. First time since N64 I'm actually excited for a Nintendo system. Won't be buying one at launch though as I always do with systems. I'll wait to see what games are on both platforms, first.

It's looking more like PS4 + WiiU next gen for me.

I have no interest in an XBOX system next gen.
