Mistakes of the Video Game Industry

foof, I have to call on the Wii lacking HD being a mistake. It would not have been easy to implement. A lot of the cost of developing the 360 and PS3 (that's developing, not even getting to manufacturing) was all the work at implementing HD into those systems. The had to figure out how much RAM they needed (they didn't just guess it was at least 512MB, and happened to be right); they had to figure out how to keep the system from overheating; and they would have had to program HD textures in their games, which takes more time and/or people than working on SD textures.

Robjoh, Nintendo is giving better support to Europe, although there is still work to be done. The Wii did launch just a few weeks after North America and Japan. Yet some games do need faster localization.

But Nintendo has already said that they could implement HD support through a software upgrade.

 

 Wher? Soure please?

 Yet if so, that would merely be upscaling, like DVDs in HD. The Wii games will still be SD.
