Hey! I wasn't saying that they released consoles like clockwork! I was suggesting there were other factors involved....

Sorry. I had trouble making out the rest of your comment. I just couldn't understand the wording.

But I still maintain the Wii is less likely since there are a lot of games that will keep the system a hit before the need for a new system. As stated, when they have some hit game ideas that truly cannot be done on the Wii, then that will be what the next system is made for.

The next Wii has to be a significant improvement in all areas over the current Wii. Nintendo do not tend to take half-steps.

I wonder what the significance of the 450mm wafers might have for the prospects of cartridges for the next system? They are due sometime 2013/2014 and I wonder if we will go full circle from optical drives and back to catridges within the space of 20 years. Unreliable, noisy, and loading times are very un-Nintendo attributes and I doubt they will need 50GB of space. Would they also need backwards compatibility? The old system is reliable and unobtrusive anyway and chances are anyone who has and loves a Wii wouldn't feel oppressed by its presence in their home entertainment system. 



Tease.
