Anyway, a redesign wouldn't get in the way of the next system. It would depend entirely on if Nintendo felt the could improve the pyisical system. The NES redesign got rid of the slot loader that was too sensitive to dust (the infamous cause of blowing on cartridges). |
I still think we could get a late term (or even post successor) Wii redesign too, more like NES/SNES/PSOne and less like Genesis/PS2/PS3/360. Make it smaller/slimmer, bulk up the flash, Wiimote plus, drop the GC ports/compatibility, matte finish (like DSi/XL), Netflix pre-installed, various color options, etc. Throw in WS/R or NSMB, charge $99, and I think you'd still have a pretty compelling product for 2012 or later (and maybe give Wii a chance yet to tumble PS2's lifetime benchmark).
