This news of the successful launch of the 360s is making many people sad on this site...lol.

there sadness makes me happy, there tears falling = me ultra hapiness, more tears please 360 haters

LOL...while I'm pretty exclusive to my play on the 360 (Wii in the house for my kids), I was glad to see the PS3 Slim launched, since that seriously increased the pressure on M$ and Nintendo to re-think plans...maybe Sony and Nintendo will do so after this holiday season.

do what?

Move up roll out plans...I don't think many will debate that Sony launched the PS3 slim earlier than expeected...so maybe Nintendo will drop some Wii HD news on us...lol.

Nintendo does not need a new console, and certainly not a "Wii HD." Wii momentum thus far has been driven by the strength of its game library, and that alone should be enough to keep momentum going in the future. DKC and Wii Relax could be huge revitalizers that bring the Wii back to its usual high sales.

DKC? I really doubt that.

I wouldn't doubt the influence DKC can have on sales. While the series isn't quite as big as Mario, it is very close. Donkey Kong is still a well known and loved character, and the DKC series on Super NES was perhaps the most popular franchise on the console after the Mario games. Add 15 years of built up hype, and there is no doubt in my mind that this game will move hardware, and lots of it.
