Golden Age of Arcade Games

The eighth generation is the next era in the history of computer and video games that will most likely begin between 2010 and 2014. This generation will include the three as-of-yet unnamed consoles from Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft; although they have been referred to as Wii 2, Playstation 4, and Xbox 720 respectively.

Having not yet formally begun, it is not yet possible to determine which, if any, of the three major consoles will dominate this generation.
