Mobile gaming is a great thing. I am a big believer in the phone as a major gaming platform. And it is a major gaming platform. The NPD Group revealed this month that for the first time ever, there are more mobile gamers than core gamers right now, which means there are more people playing games on their phones than there are playing games on their Xbox 360s, PlayStation 3s and PCs combined.

Digital Trends - According to a recent study from Strategy Analytics, gaming consoles have become the preferred method within U.S. households for watching online movies, television and Web video on televisions. Approximately 12 percent of U.S. households (15 million) use a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 to consume online media. This percentage of people is much higher than consumers hooking up a PC to a television or third-party, set-top box solutions like the media streamer from Roku. While the personal computer remains the dominant device for consuming online media, 65 percent of Xbox 360 owners under the age of 25 watch more movies and television shows through the console rather than on a desktop or laptop computer.

The Wii U has been one of the least successful product launches in Nintendo?s history so far and Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter believes that there?s very little hope sales of the console will pick up anytime soon.

What?s more, Pachter doesn?t think there?s much Nintendo can do to boost sales in the future as the Wii U?s ?fortunes appear unlikely to improve for several months, even if Nintendo decides to drop [the] price, as there are an insufficient number of core titles that are generating interest in the console.?

I love all game consoles equally. My Xbox 360 is used equally as much as my PlayStation 3. The Wii ? oh, I?ll just leave it at that. The current generation of consoles is all but over ? 10-year life cycle be damned ? and new consoles are rumored to be coming next fall. If not next fall, then in 2014. Whatever is the case, Sony (SNE) can?t afford to lag in third place again. Sure, the Xbox 360 and PS3 are neck-in-neck in global lifetime sales, and the Xbox 360 did have a one year head start, but coming off the disappointing PS Vita, ?confidence is less high? that Sony will deliver a console next year in time to compete
