After the success of the innovative Wii and DS, and the failure of its foray into graphics-are-everything known ad the Gamecube, Nintendo no longer dares to release a system that doesn't bring something genuinely and significantly new to gaming. HD and 3D don't make the cut: they may be supported if tech pemits, but they will not be the driving forces, because they just don't improve gaming in any meaningful way.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
