Gotta like Nintendo. They are always thinking so far ahead. Remember the SuperFx Chip?

Not necessarily, the Wii successor could be years away



Rumors indicate that it is planning on following the first approach, sticking a new, motion-sensitive controller onto an existing console. Our perspective is that this is the worst of the three options.

-Clayton Christensen back in 2007 already knew Move would be a bad idea

I think they'll ensure Wii2 is "HD capable" should any 3D standard ever take off for televisions, but they'll launch when they want to and not "hold back" for a 3D tie in / userbase penetration.  And they'll want to Q4 2011. ;)
