The last console will be like the last horse carriage, we still have horse after all.
I mean who will need a vehicle, that need refueling, at specific point, when I can left my horse graze everywhere? and you need road to drive on them, my horse can go everywhere, and my horse don't go blindly into cliff like those damn stupid cars, he know when to stop and how to not run into obstacle, he even know how to go back home on his own. No way cars will take over, that's stupid.

Right, exactly, the last console generation was Sega Saturn/Nintendo 64/Playstation, since after that Windows was good enough that nobody needs consoles any more.

I think we'll say many more generations. It's still big business, haven't really seen a slow down in console gaming. Unlike PC gaming for example.
I guess the biggest threat to console gaming is mobile gaming. Probably one day, you mobile phone will also be your gaming console.

Many have to improve Internet connections for that to come especially in upload speed and latency...

Yep that is what i was thinking. When the phones hit the size/capacity of a console (they do compared to older generations) it is apparently becoming a problem, and we might see a merge between them. Right now the only issue is that on mobile devices the games are very blend and empty, repetetive, just to occupy your mind. I don't feel like there are any AAA games on a phone. Switch is something closer to a mix between a phone and a console. |

"There will be one more console generation and then after that, we will be streaming, all of us."
- Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot.
Ubisoft CEO expressed this concept recently.
Do you think we'll play only through streaming any time soon?
Not really sure thou, the future is the future, we can't really predict it |

Look we have the release of POLYMEGA console, which will allow to play multiple classics like nintendo, sega, ps1 and well, it will cost around 250-350usd i am not sure about the price, have seen multiple sources.
It will be a classic box styled console with cartridge and CD. So i think we will have those boxes for some time in the future too, like little modules attached all in one

Internet connections will be definitely the problem. Not all everybody can connect as well as the games demand. I believe there will be different types of users: those who play with consoles, those who play with PC, those who play streaming.

Some new stuff to feed speculation: Intellivision Amico
Trailer:
Interview with the man behind the vision (Tommy Tallarico):
In a nutshell:
They are going for a Wii 2.0, a system so simple that every parent is able to pick it up quickly and have fun with it, predominantly with family- and couch-multiplayer oriented content. They restrict themselves to this subset of games (but it can still be large enough to offer diverse content and make many people happy). They follow a quality-over-quantity approach. The games will be curated, only those games which they see fit for the system will make it on there, and they have to be exclusive. I wonder whether they have the financial resources to build up all that (not a kickstarter project).
"Balanced gameplay & design for equal opportunity gaming" is not just a slogan, but has to be an implemented concept: think about pong, if you are superior your paddle becomes shorter and the one of your opponent longer to balance out the skill gap. Now, my competitive spirit is actually not a fan of such ideas. But objectively speaking, I see how it can enhance casual fun and add value. And this is actually something I did back then: I was superior in fighting games in my circle, to a degree that we had to set up severe handicap rules so that my opponents stood a chance and wanted to fight me, like pre-emptying the majority of the health-bar, restricting certain special moves/combos etc. And we still had fun playing this way.
If it would be a lunatic kickstarter dream set up by a bunch of teenage linux nerds, it would not register on my radar. But those are some industry veterans with a serious vision. It doesn't make them invulnerable to failure, but it makes me interested to see how it plays out for them.
What do you think? Feel free to speculate.

Phantom 2.0, not Wii 2.0.
