This is for those who have already purchased a Wii or definately will within the next 6 mos. If Nintendo put out a Wii HD in say a year or so, would you spend the $250 again for the new Wii? It wold be like the DS Lite to DS. Same games play, same channels, but upgraded visuals and HD abilities. Obviously, would have better/more powerful CPU and GPU, but otherwise the same. ME - I would after about the 2nd year.

 Why would Ninty do that?  It would hurt their own sales
