So, the Wii is gonna be the Dreamcast? It's like a half breed stuck between generations, more powerful than the PS1, but less powerful than the PS2/Gamecube an Xbox. This isn't good news for Nintendo, they are probably better off waiting a little longer if this is all true, they don't need a Dreamcast situation of Third Party developers sticking to the old platforms, while the Wii continues to get less resources and time because it's the only console thats moved on.

2014 is longer than I'd originally hoped, I'd rather a 2013 release, an extra two years with my current consoles would be fine but I think I'd reach my limit if I had to wait until 2014.


Being less powerful didn't hurt the Wii

It didnt?  How is that explosive 3rd party game selection on the Wii?

How are those sales on the PS3 and 360?  Wii outsold them by a huge margin, without strong 3rd party support, proving that third party doesn't really matter

The sales on the PS3 and 360 are fine,  they are higher than any other 2nd and 3rd place console ever,  plus the Wii is getting outsold right now isnt it?


Only by the PS3, and only by a little, at this rate, it'll pass the Wii sometime next century

They still got crushed by the Wii, a cheaper weaker system, that made far more sales and profit, for a business like Sony and MS, that's gotta hurt

Actually for a business as large as Sony or MS,  it doesnt matter as much since they have other ways of making money.  And its not like they got beat as bad as the last 2 Nintendo consoles did
