| Words Of Wisdom said: What would be Nintendo's incentive to redesign the Wii at this point? |
Cost-reduction.
Whether or not they intend to shoehorn it into a smaller form factor down the line, it makes sense to shrink it and use it in the current case. They'd get more chips per wafer and heat production would be cut down. From there they could potentially reduce heatsinks, fans, etc. thus further cost-reduction and still more profit.
Beyond that, I'd certainly love to see a Wii that's literally the size of a DVD case with the ability to upscale to 720p.
