WTH did you report this from some crappy videogame website instead of the much better Forbes interview? Forbes didn't ask about the make believe Wii HD but about their plan in new trend of technology(HD, 3-D ect.). I am tired of this shit.

I took your advice it's just that it can be difficult to remove all those nasty scripts from some sites.

On topic it could be along time before we see the next home console from Nintendo.

 

 

Yeah I can understand that, I had an annoying pop up while reading it there.

As for the next console, I think the main problem Nintendo will face and what is going to determine the console life is going to be the software side of thing, not technology as people seem to be obssessed about. You can't really count on third party to deliver big system seller because they consider their audience people who own the console on which they develop game on when you need to focus on people who don't own the console to sell say console. It's understandable since they don't make money off console sale and license fee but it's going to become problematic for the PS3 and the 360 once they sold a certain amount of console combine.

Nintendo on the other hand got Nintendo to produce system seller but even them only as a limited number of sure fire hit leaving the rest as gamble, which can be hit or miss, Wii Fit vs Wii Music. They seem to waste some of the precious time of their best studio to do sequel too. SMG2 isn't going to sell much console yet used a whole and excellent team to make it. It's going to make them money sure but their time could have been put to better use in term of selling console. Maybe it's time to ship out some smaller franchise to trusted third part to free up their main studio. Maybe even 3D Mario and Zelda after the first game on a new console. I liked Capcom Zelda one, could be interesting to see them make a console one.
