Heh I think some of those are dubious but #13 and #15 should worry xBox360 fans.

I think it will do fine at launch, really. It will be heavily marketed, and the other two consoles have no big games coming out to challenge it. If the new zelda was coming out around now, it might have been a different story.

Yeah, the Dreamcast and Xbox360 comparisons have been done to death. Frankly, the reason the Dreamcast failed was

1) PS2 hype
2) No EA support and some other developers didn't provide much if any support
3) Sega didn't have the money

MS still has to deal with the PS3 hype but they're doing a good job getting just as much hype up for the 360 (though I'm sick to death of these viral marketing gimmicks). MS is also getting a ton of developer support including key Japanese developers. And, of course, MS has very deep pockets.
