According to Develop-Online.net, Sony believes that Microsoft and Nintendo will release next generation console before they do.
Despite the PS3 having been available for four years now, Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida believes it still has a longer lifecycle ahead of it than the Xbox 360 and Wii.
“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 we should watch these companies, in my opinion. Because PS3 was later than Xbox, and is more powerful, so it has a longer lifespan.”
