Default Nintendo Won't Release New Video Game Console Until 2007

http://www.bluegoop.net/?m=show&id=284

OSAKA (Nikkei)--Nintendo Co. (7974.OK) has decided not to release a new video game console to follow its current GameCube for the time being, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun reported in its Tuesday edition

and it goes on it say this

The decision to withhold the release of a new console was made because while the game market is contracting and becoming more diverse, "customers are fully satisfied with the performance of the current model," President Satoru Iwata said.

Nintendo will continue in-house development of a new home-use game machine for release in the future, but for the next two or three years will add functions to the GameCube.

Now what do you guys think of this step? Could it mean more domination for Sony and Microsoft?
