not hurt but with wii sales dropping,people think 360 and ps3 as upgrades and will go for it

and if wii hd doesn't arrive then they will eat wii's share and nintendo won't have that good name to carry on to nect gen

and with all the companies arriving in next 2 years wit new consoles,nintendo won't have the advantage that a gen winner has with its brand name built

and no i'm not crazzyman

Price is gonna be the major issue Sony faces in this regard. You can currently purchase a Wii with WiiSports, a Wii MotionPlus, and WiiSports Resort for only $200. The cheapest PS3 available is $300, and that's just for the system. Add a game, Move, and the Playstation Eye (it will probably be necessary) to that, and you're looking at over $400, more than twice the cost of the same amount of content available out-of-the-box with a Wii. Since initial value is something many of the average gamers base their purchasing decisions on, it'll be really difficult for Sony to put any kind of dent in the Wii's momentum, especially if the games they offer for Move are largely the same kinds of games available on Wii.

your right!!! SONY is preparing for something that will mkost likely not happen!. SONY wats to cut Wii2 off, but what happens if there is no Wii2 but a entirely differnt NINTENDO console? SONY just wasted alot of time..instead of trying to predict the unpredictable NINTENDO they should focus on creafting there own orginal idea for next gen. So they wont be stuck trying to catch up all gen again

 a game doesn't cost sony anything as its first party for the move bundle

PS3 is already making a profit and with more profit with 40nm RSX and fall 32nm CELL chips

SONY will be able to reduce their 120gb SKU price to $249 and not lose at it

now for the move bundle PS EYE cost barely $20 to make(it sells for $30),MOVE and NAV are just a broken up DUALSHOCK 3 which cost $30 to make(sells at $40) so MOVE NAV will be $50 and a game (free)

the toal comes to  $70

they can also take out DS3 from the $249 120GB SKU and bundle MOVE for no loss.

i don't know how the hell did you reach the $400 mark

Why should Nintendo make a Wii HD? It is a losing strategy. The flaw in your perspective is you believe Nintendo is, and should be on the defensive, when really they are the aggressor. Natal, and especially Move, are defensive strategies to keep core gamers on THEIR consoles, because Nintendo is threatening to go after the core gamers with motion plus, which are the vast majority of Sony and MS's market. If Nintendo can entice core gamers with motion controls, then it's all but over for Sony and MS.

Nintendo making an HD Wii would be merely conceding defeat to Sony and MS, and why on earth would they concede defeat when they are the market leaders?

They will make an ALL new console, likely in a couple of years, with a new hook to differenciate themselves like they did with motion controls and the balance board, at which point Sony and MS will probably copy these new features as well.

Oh you mean like sony in this gen, right?

Nintendo is threatening to go after the core gamers with motion plus..................................lmao

Motion plus is not gonna work on core gamers

i am not saying they should only do HD but other things too with thei new console,just that if they release their console say 2012 and till then their popularoty is down from what it is now,they will lose the GEN winner advantage and as PS4 this time ain't going to be expensive
