Nintendo needs to have a new console ready for Holiday 2012 -- to be shows at E3 2012.
It will need HD and motion controls -- obviously. But it will need something else new as well. My guess is biometrics. The vitality sensor is a precursor for it. Imagine something along the lines of the bio sensors in EA Active 2. Now imagine that being incorporated into an action game or horror game. The total immersion possibilities are endless.
Just remember though that Nintendo does not do technology that people are not ready for or that will make their consoles too expensive. That's why there was no HD in 2006 (too costly and still only about a 50% penetration in the US). That's why there is no DVD playback (people use DVD players for that). These are game machines and will continue to be game machines.
