All three consoles are using ATI and IBM to make their most important parts of their respective systems. In 5 years the two with HD qualities will have helped IBM and ATI to produce these types of chips at the cost range that Nintendo will want, in order to produce a WiiHD at sub $300 levels. Also, by then HD televisions will be the majority in US homes as well as Japan, so Nintendo will see that as a must.
Current TV (i.e. "real life") works and looks just fine at non-HD resolutions ;). There are a lot of improvements that can be made to graphics in consoles that have nothing to do with increased resolutions.
I'll much rather see Nintendo add support for a bunch of programmable pixel shaders than just move to 1080p res. Of course both would be nice as well. :)
