New Year's Resolutions for the Big 3

[Bond]

I don't think this is that great of a list.

Making Xbox Live free is certainly something Microsoft isn't going to do. It's been shown a sizable percentage of the market is willing and able to pay for Xbox Live and believe the superior service is worth a few cents a day.

Also, releasing multiple SKUs is beneficial for the producer (Microsoft). It's basically a legal way to price discriminate and can be very profitable.

And as far as Nintendo goes... why would they go back to trying to please the "core gamer" when they are making the most money they've made in generations by appealing to the casual gamer?
