I would not be too surprised if there would be a slightly improved wii. It is pretty normal for nintendo to rip people off with that kind of stuff. (DSi,WM+)



Do i really need NSMB Wii in HD?

*yawn*

If you're going to sit there and troll all day, at least try to be a little more creative about it.

New system late 2011, early 2012. I'm willing to bet it will have the same interface as the Wii, just very enhanced. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a lot more powerful than the PS3, the HD tech by them will be much cheaper. They just need to have some good games (like Wii Sports) when the new system is released.

the HD is sure for the next Nintendo's console...but the real question is: will it still use DVDs? Or it will need to use bluerays? Please don't shot at me, it's a question i'm trying to answer in these days :)



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

 

Wii was a step up from GC with backward compatibility that was awesome. They can easily build on that. Add On is ridiculous. Show me a TV set that has an add on HD component. I've never heard of such a thing and don't see why that would be an option. It sounds silly. An upgraded box with new innards is the way to go. Can handle current library, GCN library titles still, and be capable of handling anything new that would appear on competition's consoles. The cost is affordable now. The number of HD households has grown over these last several years. It's a better time for the offering. And they have the market share to sell an revised system to the masses. They have the casual support and the ability to say "enjoy this inexpensive console with great motion control titles or step up to a stronger console to handle more advanced gaming titles." I'd buy it and look forward to the multiplatform games that it would deserve instead of having limited multiplatform games because of developers and their short-sighted-ness. I agree with the other person in here about HD gaming. I don't need it and can live without it. It's not a movie. It's a game. But if it is the difference that would give me RE5 on same date as the other consoles, then I'd be happy to see Nintendo make this move. They already sold the world on the product. Now refine it. Not for gamers only. But it gets rid of developers' excuses as to why not make their titles available on the Wii. With a WiiHD, they have no more excuses to bring over those cool multiplatform titles.



Consoles owned: NES, N64, PS1, GC, PS2, Wii.

Currently playing...

     

i don't care about HD, SD still looks great lol.. no doubt Ninty is gonna get into HD next gen its not because you people keep reminding people, its because 2011 - 2013 is when HD wars begins
