For all the people that are saying the Wii graphics will be to far behind to keep up because by then the graphics will be able to used right(in the 360/PS3), and the Wii graphics will still look bad. Here's something I thought of, since people say by then the 360/PS3 could be as cheap as the Wii because the cost of parts are going down, couldn't Nintendo come out with a SuperWii, (lol) and beef up the graphics to 360/PS3 (or get alot closer to them) but keep a low price?
Yes/No ...
Hypothetically speaking, Nintendo could produce a HD version of the Wii when they move to the 65nm or 45nm process on their CPU/GPU while still maintaining their small form factor and inexpensive price ... This move would (probably) be simply to improve the resolution of most games because they wouldn't want to break compatibility ...
In Q4 2011 I would anticipate Nintendo comming out with a successor to the Wii which will (probably) be dramatically more powerful than the PS3/XBox 360 yet still be sold at a reasonable price ...
