Will Sony and Microsoft implement more motion technology or in Microsofts case, will it be added at all? If so, how do you see motion sensor controls affecting the business?

From a business standpoint, it would make no sense not to add motion controls.
I however foresee Sony improving on the Sixaxis and MS doing something dumb like releasing two separate controllers.

Will Nintendo be on the cutting edge with HD quality visuals and audio with a more fine-tuned motion sensoring Wiimote?

I don't think Nintendo will be on the cutting edge, Nintendo for all the money they make are a cheap company. I think they will be closer to PS3/360 next round.

Will "casual" games take a more prominent role in each companies lineups?

I personally hope the term dies. Casual gaming has always been around. I see it being just as important as it has always been.

How will Wii 2 be received?
[quote]It depends on what Wii 2 is, but really they have the mindshare so it will carry over for a bit.

What will motivate the current Wii owners to upgrade to the next big thing instead of just keeping their Wii and continuing to play Wii Sports or whatever else?

Like every console, that must have game.

Basically, what the hell will we be doing come time for the next batch of gaming consoles?

Basically gaming will go down two paths. There will be an increase in the technical aspect such as graphics and sound. There will also be a natural progression in the physical interface.

One last thing (I think), All three companies need new IP's, give us more new games and keep up with the solid sequels that all three companies already offer us.

New IPs are a scary thing. A lot fall flat on their face and then some rise, but yeah I would love to see more risk in gaming. Starting with this gen.
