Title says it all.
Modern: Well, all I can say is this. Nintendo's stuff is impressive and original, but not considered too intelligent. (I speak of the Wii, with motion controlls, which bug the crap out of me.) Microsoft is indeed impressive, but I feel we owe it to Nintendo, since they ended the crash of 1982. And Sony deserves to die.
Future: Atari and Sega figuring out where they've been for the last decade. Oh, and Sony dying.
