Most people in the world don't have HD televisions but a significant chunk of the population does and we shouldn't have to wait another generation for our videogames to take advantage of them. You can make HD games that can be downconverted to SD and still be playable. I hardly know anyone anymore that doesn't have at least one flat panel television and 2009 is the end of the line for analog TV signals in the US. That is going to drive adoption even more. And no 5.1 at this stage of the game? Really?
Nintendo's press conference at last year's E3 made their position clear: they don't care about core gamers because they don't have to. Fair enough. It's not such a bad thing to have different consoles for different markets. I think Nintendo recognizes that even if some of the posters in this thread do not.
