Yeah, I just guess I'm not that much into tablets. And I think a more precise and less room space requiring Kinect is much, much cooler, the real next step.

Irony: over here, the PS1/2 became popular because they were quite pirate-friendly, and the N64 and GC didn't fly for the same reasons. PS3 and X360 are rather easy-to-pirate, but the Wii... dammit. You don't even have to buy the console. Just get a Wiimote and 2 candles and you can play HD games in your PC with VERY little effort. Not saying any of this is actually relevant to Nintendo's numbers, but heck, it's irony at its best. MS is also appealing to a bigger audience here: most people I know around here have gaming pcs, not consoles.
Whomever manages to implement a balance between pirate-friendlyness (specially for the most expensive games) and also has a digital-only VERY cheap delivery system (talking about games for... 5 U$Ds roughly), will probably win the whole South American market. Even with a more expensive console.

Once jailbreak came out, PS3 is the default console around.
That’s when I thought, “good grief”
Just ain’t my belief
