As far as I see it, there are only a few roadblocks to Sony's total domination of the console market:
1) Key game manufacturers like Square/Enix, Electronic Arts (especially EA Sports), and Namco (to name a few) must be convinced to put out new games for *only* the new consoles.
2) Consumers must be made aware of the fact that there will be no more games produced for their old consoles, but that there are all these great new games for this other shiny new console. This would be advertising. So far I haven't seen much in the way of a media blitz.
Unfortunately, as a way of stifling the relative enthusiasm of potential PS3 purchasers, M$ announced the release of Halo for the 360 to be the same day as the release of the PS3.
Now if only the PS3 would play Xbox games we'd have a winner! /pipe dream
Implausible, I know... ;(
