Gaming - Wii High-Definition - View Post

LingLing,

Why would Nintendo intentionally cripple HD output? Doesn't make sense. A DVD Video player can be software enabled, but it will cost you. The DVD forum is charging license fees for every DVD player on the planet.

This USA Today story (which is actually an Associated Press story) is from November 2006. Nintendo had a lot more to explain back then when the Wii was often still regarded as the quirky underdog. 6 months later it's quite clear even to mainstream media what Wii is and what it's not.


Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.
