It's not about "like"; it's about cost. Just because it "seems" like a thing to do doesn't mean it's actually likely, unless the economics somehow allows Nintendo to do it affordably.

I agree with that, but some rumors suggest the console will process the image and the controller will only show them, without any extra hardware, thus lowering the cost.

After all, no one will buy contollers that expensive, look what's happenig with Sony's motion controller.

I don't give a ****! Give me upgraded motion controls or screw you!

I'm not going back to dual analog only, screen or no screen.

LOL, isn't that obvious?

Yes.

It is a home console, but you can take the controller and play anywhere in the house (I'm sure not all software will be designed to take advantage of this).

That has not been confirmed by Nintendo so I don't see why people keep acting like it has.

Why can't they do both?

A modular controller is the idea solution, something that can be shifted from a Wiimote-esque form to something else. I seem to remember Sony patenting something like that at one point, so someone in the industry is thinking that way, if not Nintendo

I actually was thinking of the screen alone. Monitors still need mechanisms to take in the visual data and process it onto the screen. Plus the controller would need a lot more information flowing to it, which means either risking lag if it's wireless, or a more expensive cord if it's not. And the screen itself wouldn't be cheap.

I still can`t make heads or tails on what the remote will exactly be... but maybe we won`t be getting a single way to play. Not just a remote or a traditional controller.
Rumors say it will have buttons, touchscreen, camera, motion controls, streaming content to the remote, serve as a sensor bar and the idea that 3DS could interact with 3DS.

I`m guessing that Nintendo will probably make a console that mixes the traditional home console view with portability.
Well the idea of being able to stream content to the remote seems to support. You wouldn`t have to play in front of the screen if you couldn`t and didn`t feel like it: just turn on the thing and do the necessary steps to play it with the remote wherever you are around the house, for example. Probably 3DS will be used in similar way. Probably not for Wii 2 games but for Wii (regular, Wiiware and Virtual console) games, since it`s powerful enough to do this.

If Wii2 plays Wii games it will need a sensor bar for those who never owned the Wii before so Wii2`s remote being used as a sensor bar would make sense. But, imagining that Wii2 has games with motion controls aswell, Wii remote or a better version would still need a sensor bar: Wii2`s remote.

The camera could be used for videocalls over the internet, taking pictures or filming. Who knows? But could be a way to implement a social element to Wii2.
