I'm not trying to jump on Nintendo's lap and wiggle, or anything, but I must say this: Nintendo stated that they could've released a color Gameboy YEARS before the release of the Gameboy Color. They waited until the cost of color screens and battery life were at an acceptable level. Of course, it was a success to gamers and Nintendo. Maybe games have evolved too fast. Maybe it's possible that games are costing too much to make, and it's almost impossible for a company to produce multiple games that push the more powerful consoles, and still make a profit. Maybe Nintendo got it right again.

 The Wii's sensor technology has also been around for years. They waited until the cost came down enough so it was cheaper to use that than do the expected processor-and-graphics upgrade to the Gamecube. Result: success.
