Retro Uprising - View Single Post - What will the next console war be faught over?

For the past decade digital cameras were competing on who could have the most megapixels. Camera companies and consumers recently came to the conclusion than average $100 camera had enough megapixels that it didn't really matter anymore so they moved on to competing in other areas. The decided good enough was good enough.

I think games are close to reaching this bar too. Improved graphics are getting close to no longer being important. Nintendo proved this by not focusing on graphic upgrades in the Wii.

What do you think the next area of competition will be?

Obviously there is about to be a motion controls war (how do you think that will turn out) but more importantly what do you think will come after that?
