Alright this is not meant to be a flame beacon. Its an honest question. Is Reggie full of Next Gen crap? I'll explain the reasons I ask this!

 

Ever since the start of Nintendo Of America their has been a lack of knowledge in NOA. I remember NOA denying that a DS was in development weeks before the DS launched. I remember NOA talking about Project Dolphin denying it was in development. I remember Reggie himself saying that the DS:Lite was not coming days before the announcement in Japan. Over the years NOA and NOE have made many false statement's either because they honestly had no clue what Nintendo's upper echalon was doing or they purposely mislead us. So with all of the past contradictions can we really trust NOA to know what's going on at Nintendo or if they do are they full of crap denying everything exists till Nintendo Japan confirms it?

Now I read an interview with the Regginator "When Mr. Miyamoto goes to Mr. Iwata and says. 'I have this great idea and I can't do it on the Wii,' that's when there will be a next generation console,"But this quote is completely false because Nintendo themselves have proven it. When ever Miyamoto has an idea that can't be carried out on the Wii a new controller is born. Miyamoto and others wanted a balance board style controller, bamb Nintendo releases the balance board. Miyamoto wanted more accurate WiiMotes and bamb MotionPlus is born, Miyamoto and Iwata hit another wall that they couldn't do on Wii and bamb theirs the vitality sensor. If it is a question of control's Nintendo will never create another console because they can always just develope a new controller.

This brings me to the question of Reggie being full of next gen crap. The Regginator recently said "I think Mr. Miyamoto himself has said that he is very interested in a high-definition experience, but to be 120 percent crystal clear, HD by itself in our view is not enough to go for a new console past the Wii." So if resolution isn't enough what constitutes the development of a next gen console. Nintendo stated 3D and HD isn't enough to warrant a new console.

So is Reggie full of crap?, their is nothing Nintendo can't make for the Wii to satisfy Miyamoto's creative spirit (Unless your talking the Matrix or holograms). Resolution has to play a role in the next console, any new controller Nintendo reveals could be done for the Wii their is nothing Nintendo can't develope for the Wii.

So in the end Resolution and perspective (3D) have to be the driving force behind a new console. In other words Reggie must be full of crap. Because he contradicts himself. He says when Miyamoto can't make something for the Wii they will build a new console. However we know that everytime Miyamoto has hit that block Nintendo has over comed it with a new controller.

So in the end the next console will have to be developed for HD or 3D gameplay whether Reggie likes to admit it or not!
