The same lesson Sony learned with the PSP, listen Nintendo chose to use again old tech on their systems, MS and Sony won't. They will use current GPU which way beyond 2005 version. If the next Wii is only 5 times more powerful than a 6 year console, don't expect the others to do the same or lesser. 

Modern shader architecture and cross platform game engines makes the horsepower itself not as relevant.  

They would still be behind and 3rd parties will still use that as an excuse. Some of you need to stop dreaming. 

There is no reason TONS of 3rd party games are not on the Wii. People, Iphone has MGS4 port. There is no reason, none beside not wanting those games on a Nintendo systems. If you people think all the sudden, those big games will suddenly appear, good luck. They will test the system and slowly leave it as MS and Sony announce their new consoles. 

iPhone is not a games machine and is a different market.

Wii gets no support due to massive differences and devs not wanting to build the tools. Basically they see Wii as an unnecesary cost as PS360/PC are ok for the game market.

iPhone is a new market and as such they are willing to spend the developement to bring games that way. Completely different business case that managers are willing to expand to.

Had Wii been at a similar tech level, it would have the same ports.
