It means a Wii 2, a new console. Look at these quotes from the article I linked before:
"We would expect publishers to support such a move, given that the cost of porting an Xbox 360 game to the new Wii Plus HD format would likely be lower than the cost of building a ground up Wii game (we estimate under $5 million)."
"Should Nintendo be able to convince publishers like EA and Take-Two that the Wii Plus should be supported by the entire EA Sports catalog and by the next installment of Grand Theft Auto, it should be in a position to successfully convince consumers that the Wii Plus is the last console they will ever need to purchase," Pachter said.
Since he's talking about games specifically developed with the new console in mind, it can't be fully compatible with the Wii...

Wii-Plus sounds like the same wii-console except with some kind of major add-on boost in my opinion, if he would have said wii-2 he would have, also i dont think nintendo has ever kept the name of consoles, they changed it each gen.
Hmmm, to me, it stands as some sort add-on on the current wii-console. again though, thats jus' my thoughts on it.

Ignore the name and focus on the rest of what he said. His quotes imply that games would be especially developed for the Wii HD. Therefore it's not just a seamless upgrade, it's a new console.

I've got an open mind when it comes to gaming, and i dont think hes saying a new console, however if this is the case... of which i personally doubt, then many wii owners are going to be screwed over since its not an upgrade they could purchase instead all those current wii owners would have to buy a new console. i couldn't even see MS or Sony pulling off such an act of Greed.
