The Wii is pretty much nearly as cheap to make as it will ever be. The Wii HD or whatever would probably be the same situation. Why would they keep the Wii on the market (Undersupported) which is also against their ethics as a company at a lower price. They would be better off with just maximising the sales of their higher margin next generation console.


They'd keep supporting the Wii because there will still be lots of potential buyers since the Wii will have a really large library and will be cheap, just like the PS2. Not only that but for some niche devs that haven't gone HD, or don't really plan to, and can find success on the Wii just like the PS2.

Im not saying they'd not support the Wii, I was saying perhaps they would end the sale of the Wii to retail earlier in the lifespan than say the PS2. This is especially true if they want to 'disrupt' the market once again.



Tease.
