How upset would you be if Nintendo decided to release the Super Wii this year and it had the following specifications:

As powerful as 360 and PS3 technologically and graphics wise.

It had all the core third party games that the Wii doesn't have:  GTA, Final Fantasy XIII, Fallout 3, Modern Warfare, etc.

It had versions of Epic Mickey, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid:  Other M, the next Zelda game running in PS3, 360 quality graphics

It was backwards compatabile with all Wii, Wii Ware, Virtual Console, and GC games.

It had improved online features and could play the latest HD movies.

It had a $299.00 price tag, but you could trade in an older Wii and receive a significant discount off the purchase of Super Wii for doing so. 

It was marketed more towards the core initially while original Wii continued to be the console of choice for casual gamers (hence the reason for the trade in option, Nintendo would refurbish the traded in consoles and send them out to people that just wanted a Wii).

I'll be super upset. Not only did they blow the wii's chances of useing 100% of its hardware.
They kill sales too much. They could make more money if they release it later also where I'm I going to get the money to buy it?

(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

I don't see it as necessary, and I would question Nintendo's decision considering the Wii still is very healthy.

It wouldn't upset me though, well, not as much as it would upset my wallet.

It would mean Nintendo would be losing its marbles.

Launching a new console at the same time they launch a new Zelda and a new SMG? Pure madness and I would advocate sending Nintendo's execs to a mental hospital.

They would never do that, the community is not ready for a new Nintendo console. But thoretically, yes I would be pissed

Yes, I think the Wii has much to show yet (outselling the PS2 would be awesome) and the next console could wait a bit more.
